So have heard that Swift Air B727 crew are off to Abidjan now too,DHL has insisted.This is after many attempts by DHL,just rostering the guys to end their day in Abidjan-and the crew checking this out were not to be fooled easily.I hear the crew are not happy and asking for more pay(and these are European pilots-not just the SA guys that complain and ask for more). It appears the crew are biting the bullet since they only have to put up with it for 2 weeks before the contract expires. DHL are still a valued customer for Swift Air in the middle east-so there wont be any contesting in the move by Swift Air.

How true is the rumour that SAFAIR are taking over the B727 operations from FEB?Has Solenta pulled out or can't supply crew for now
