The bonus is only "gone" because of attitudes like that. It's "gone" because the pilots are easily frightened, even to the point they won't insist on proper treatment under the terms of their actual contract. It's "gone" because the company can manufacture a crisis every year if they choose (the ADB was withheld BEFORE the virus panic became apparent). The management chose to once again take money from the one group who is easily manipulated, coerced and bullied. You are all affirming that point of view with your comments. CX has billions and billions of reserves, credit lines and political power (they actually made on average a MILLION AUS$ every single day of the year). They are not going out of business. They are however quietly laughing at the naivety and gullibility of their pilot workforce. I can't blame them.
