The VA CEO has made it clear that the hit to the business is not just to the A330 operation. Business travel is down, and the now absent Chinese tourists flew plenty of domestic sectors, predominantly on 737s.
If VA pull the trigger on forced A330 pilot redundancies it will destroy trust among all the various pilot groups, not just the A330.
At risk of skirting Godwin's Law... "First they came for the A330 pilots, but I said nothing as I was not an A330 pilot..."
