Pity really, but demonstrates that if an easyJet skipper is prepared to go to Virgin for half the salary, there must be something wrong.
It is the time of year for the usual Balpa terms and conditions "negotiations". What this means in reality is that easyJet management refuse to budge on any issue, resulting in such a protracted process that the CC eventually capitulate out of sheer exhaustion.
EasyJet pilots are still waiting to see what's "on offer" this year, as are Balpa. The only way forward is for 100% union membership but solidarity remains an elusive dream.
Having said all that, it's the time of year for pilots to move on, and 20 resignations out of over 1000 pilots isn't really significant is it?
