SLS 2020 coming
Fairly obvious after the CEO's update. How many will or indeed can afford to "volunteer" is the question?
Junior crew on COS18 or crew on local terms and conditions most likely cannot afford a month without pay so their participation is doubtful.
Based pilot's with the comfort and protection of proper labor laws and ongoing contractual issues with the company will not be in rush to help out.
HKG based pilots in general with high rents or large mortgages tied to properties that are worth less every day will not be overly enthusiastic.
Captains will also be highly dubious about falling for the same B/S after the previous discrimination shown towards them with regards to the company's failure to repay full lost salary and not being awarded full discretionary bonuses as per other employee groups. Although, 500+ COS99 Captains might be more supportive should their retirement age be lifted to 65.
Management has not missed an opportunity to destroy morale, cut conditions and divide the pilot group over the last 20+ years so they might be sorely disappointed when their request for help from the Pilot group falls on deaf ears.
"Good luck" to management trying to sell SLS 2020 with the above backdrop.
