40% reduction in loads
FON update with increased leave available over the winter and massive reduction in future bookings on Cathay may not bode well for 13th month. It seems every year there is some sort of threat to bonuses. Although this may be a different situation as the previous financial uncertainties were self induced.
Will we be asked to take voluntary unpaid leave? Will the airline reduce the number of aircraft they are operating? Will air China make a bid to take over the airline? How much more time will be added to any future of an upgrade?
With all this uncertainty I feel as though I should be looking to get my arse out of here.
