The only way the pilots can win this (and it isn’t really a battle, just a way of forcing a decent amount of money out of the employer), is to do a SW trains and shut the airline down for a month. Call it 4 weeks unpaid leave, or a firebreak. I think many people would fancy December off. It is pointless doing a few days here or there. Close it down for a month and enjoy being at home. It may make you realise what an unhealthy lifestyle this is when you get 30 nights sleep in your own bed with home cooked food and a chance to spend quality time with loved ones and friends, rather than the faux life we spend at work. What have we got to lose?
