Good luck with finding 200 people who want to do Sunrise flying with such fantastic conditions that have been suggested including things like economy paxing. Not to mention the unsustainable crewing level on flights the likes of which have never been done before. The conditions at Emirates are better than what they are suggesting.
Re short haul. Again best of luck. But remember you can’t replace the current pilots with cheaper pilots. It’s illegal if their flying reduces. Good luck with all short haul good will gone keeping the show on the road with the mess domestic currently is on a daily basis. And network is generating such good publicity at the moment isn’t it?!
Folks for once the pilots are in a very strong position and all management have is FUD. Don’t fall for it. LH SH aren’t asking the world, far from it. When management want to start talking some sense I’m sure the pilots will be happy to talk and figure out an agreement where everyone benefits-not just the managers.
That is it! There is nothing to fear.
The QSA 1992 is pretty clear what sort of International Flying can be done and by whom..
FWC might have a thing to say about that too.
So Nathan, what's your cut?
(or DFO, Fleet Head etc)
When these "managers" speak, other than with forked tongues it is usually from self interest.
As the saying goes, "Never ask your barber if you need a hair cut"
Little Napoleon's big bluff is just that.
They need a fleet, the A350-1000 with extra fuel tanks is the only aircraft flying that comes close to the hype they generated.
Either they buy it or they don't but their fleet metrics remain an ever festering problem...
