In 3-6 months, when fleet sizes are finalised, there will be more. Say for instance that bus flying changes to 320/350, but the 777 fleet is halved (or more), now they can chop 50% FO and CN from the fleet that needs it, completely out of seniority.
I couldn’t agree more Gretzky, this is only the first wave and all those on the non flying fleet should be concerned for when the next wave hits. This is far from over, the 500 million savings this first round brings them won’t be enough to staunch the haemorrhaging of cash they are experiencing. Bad times for us all.
A shout out to all our KA colleagues, you deserve better and my sincerest sympathies to you all. Best of luck for your future endeavours.
