removing the 747 and the A380 from the fleet, is well and truly an event within the airlines control. My 2c
Agree.
Once the airline has restructured with Y number of aircraft requiring X number of crew who are all back working, then excess crew would go through a redundancy process. What’s the point in negotiating a redundancy package as part of your terms and conditions if every time a business reforms it can simply indefinitely stand down employees until they eventually resign/retire?
I can see this one being decided in the courts.
