I doubt that EZY will have to cancel flights as most people leaving are SF/O´s and there is no shortage of potential TRSS F/O´s.
The reduced flying over the winter will provide enough time to train F/O´s for the next onslaught: SUMMER 2006!
I hope to have escaped this orange brainwashed outfit by then.
Besides that, a quick fix is already in place by forcing captains to fly in the right hand seat. (helluva expensive F/O for a "low cost airline" but logic thinking has never been a strong point in the PortaCabin Palace...
)
Things will get hairy IMO when captains start to leave and EZY will not have enough 3500-4500 hour F/O´s available to upgrade. That´s when the proverbial sh!t will hit the fan.
p.s. JJ 737, I
do want a payrise (hell! they can afford it!!) and I
do want to be treated as a human being. (doesn´t cost much) It´s the lack of willpower of the employees to make it a better outfit which gives management the carte blanche to screw us over!
