I think the survival of Norwegian is in everybody's interest! - Even if it's by bailout or other means. If we lose another big player in Europe the market will be flodded with pilots once again, and the recovery will take ages. It would seriously suck for the people working in norwegian, but try and think big picture for a moment! Many other respectable airlines will no doubt downsize in the times to come with people losing jobs far and wide. That goes for legacy carriers and direct competitors to Norwegian as well. If we donīt keep at least some airlines running on lifesupport it will water down the job market, and as we know not a single pilot will be safe for a very long time. You may think you will be ok with any legacy-type carrier but I think this will likely affect everyone - big and small.
I'll be signing that petition and i'll keep my fingers crossed for Norwegian.
