What does any of it mean? There is nothing in there that hasn't been in general circulation for the past 4 months anyway. All it does is give the staff further anxieties about what their future looks like. Where do the wide body pilots think they fit into all this? It would be an optimistic person that thinks that a surplus of 737 pilots are simply going to make way for 777 and A330 pilots who have to be retrained. It still reminds me of the 2 class low cost model that was spruiked by Lew and Fox supported by Korda-Mentha. Basically Bain thinks they will be attracting some customers from the premium end of the market and some customers from the low cost end. Weren't Bain going to ditch the lounges and the frills? Good luck to the staff but all I can recommend is don't hold on too tight to the memories of the airline you once worked for.
