Mr Ree,
not missing your loyalty bonus are you?
As I said, don't speak out of ignorance. I get my loyalty bonus this year same as ever UNLESS the CC reach an agreement with the company to replace it with a more beneficial profit share schemem AND the majority of BALPA members (which will not include you now will it) vote for it.
wiz, I forgot to answer one of your questions about where else I could go. Well, I could, if I chose, go to Ryanair tomorrow, work an easier roster, and get another £600 a month for my efforts.
If you paid the £50 pounds to apply to Ryanair, then the £150 to do the sim and paid for your initial training, you would be unpaid for the term of your line training, then on a contract basis, without a permenent base, accomodation whilst away or transport to your next base of operation, earning less than half what you do at easyJet for the first three years. Then you MIGHT be taken on permanently and yes, earn more than you do at EJ.
So why haven't you? Probably best all round if you considered it...
