I think you're both wrong there.
Ryanair for example get significantly more flying hours from their crews than easyjet, but the threads on here about easyjet rostering far outnumberany other airline.
Where easyjet are concerned its all about the appalling attitude to the front line staff displayed from the top, and that disgraceful culture has filtered a long way down.
There can be nobody more cost conscious than O'Leary, but he knows that if you pay guys well and even more importantly give them decent work patterns it is good business.
easy's problems are just beginning, their continuing contemptuous attitude to staff is coming home to roost!
