ROFL..................... good luck with that idea. Now if only Europe had low cost airlines who needed this competition.

Came across this with a very good US company 20 years ago, a major investment that would take 9 months to complete, they just suggested sacking the employees not needed and rehiring others when project finished. Genuine shock when they realised the protection employees had to arbitrary dismissal and the cost involved. They costed 2 weeks notice for everyone and genuine shock when they realised that just 2 people with 20 years service would have eaten up the whole budget and there was 100 people involved. They did adapt / learn and project was a success, a lot to do with the workforce as well during implementation.

The idea sounds like a pipe dream thought up without any thought.
