Snake:
Why would an airline in times of a looming recession buy new planes and expand???? What does your mgmnt know ours (LH) doesnt? We are cutting routes to Rio, Lima taskent and New York and a few others because of all the economic problems coming.
Also I have a personal question asked before but it remained unanswered. Are the based guys with cx a different lot? All of you refer to living in HKG and the money and rostering involved. But doesent cx based more and more pilots out? If yes are they considered by the HKG guys a different group than you? Or are they not affected by the union thing going on, and their rostering/contract is different/better for example. Maybe someone can shed some light on this for me. Many thanks!
