Yep - overall pilot pay went down by 2021 due stand downs, pay cuts, redundancies and forced onto contracts with lower T&Cs. No doubt about that. Companies took advantage of this environment to keep downward pressure on T&Cs as long as they could.

But since the middle of last year some unions have negotiated good deals for employee groups, JQ, EFA amongst others seem to have voted up their EAs without resorting to PIA. The always militant ALAEA agreed to a good deal without resorting to any serious industrial action. The feeling from other employee groups with EAs about to expire is that the IR landscape is in their favour for once and some big concessions can be achieved.

Now have a think why that is……
