According to the CX press release, 239 pilots will start on the new scheme immediately and the rest will take place on their birthday. Does it mean 239 pilots accepted the company's offer?
Tony Tyler claimed that over 1,400 pilots are already on the new pay scheme. Not a single one has rejected it. Nor has a single pilot rejected the improved benefits that they have implemented. Who is telling the truth? Him or the AOA?
Quote:
>>Cathay Pacific spokeswoman Lisa Wong said the difference between the former rostering practices and the new set related to a pilot's rest period after several days on duty; the use of a first-class seat instead of a bunk for rest on medium-haul flights; and three crew members instead of four for flights going to Auckland and Anchorage.<<
To those who didn't accept the offer, what are you going to do if you are rostered to fly with 3 pilots instead of the 4? Can you refuse to fly?
CX has now returned all the chartered aircraft and is back to full capacity flying its own aircraft. Does it mean they didn't need the aircraft in the first place? Or is it because the limited industrial action failed and caused no damage to the CX day to day operations?
