With all due respect, history has shown, that they have seldom, given anything back, once taken.
I would humbly suggest that unless our HKAOA obtain in writing, exactly what or how much of any concession will be returned once CX return to profitability, that the chances of a voluntary return is so slim a possibility, as to not being worth considering.
I think we have to be realistic. The corollary of expecting a “payback” in good times would be to take a proportional cut during the bad.
At the moment we are obviously losing a lot of money far more that the monthly reduction due to SLS (cos18 excepted). Purely a personal opinion but I am amazed that we haven’t as yet seen redundancies. I know at times we all have our gripes about the company but talking to my mates in BA and Virgin is sobering ( normally it isn’t !)
