Having taken part in industrial action at a couple of different airlines and the above sentiments are very common. Anyone who was fooled into thinking the company would just layover and give in loses motivation at the first sign of resistance. The company have fired enough warning shots across the bow now to freak out those who aren’t 100% committed. This is now the true test, who continues with the current action and who will carry on the action after Xmas. It is always the risk with PIA, if the pilot body starts to fracture then it hands the company the upper hand in negotiations at the union has no dry powder left in the arsenal. Here’s hoping the pilot body see’s it through and doesn’t hamstring the negotiators.
