Quite a few crew already out the door to the likes of EK. Don't believe the spin from the contract companies.
Care to elaborate more? The contract conditions are announced and available online, so even if its not amazing people know what they are getting money wise at least.
Pilots not coming back, I can understand with the current US market situation and their salaries going through the roof compared to pre-covid times, no US based crew would be interested in getting less and be further away from home.
I'm actually curious as to what the company is doing now with their pilots. Are they flying the regular ANA flights most of the locals don't take as someone mentioned several replies back in this thread? Is everyone at home twiddling thumbs?
Or are they flying 90 hours per month like the guys leaving for EK will?
