Here is an excerpt from Kathimerini yesterday:
“We have also instructed a top international consultant to draw up a business plan, for which the new company will receive the necessary permits,” the minister added. The new airline is likely to start operating in April with 30 planes — 10 fewer than it currently has.'
Surely they have more aircraft than this, especially when you include all of the domestic service (lots of ATRs). Does anyone know the real total?
Also, another article mentions a staff reduction of 50%. I am guessing that there will be massive strikes in opposition to this. Would love to know on what basis the 'new' company decides who will stay and who will go. Would be very nice if merit and ability were included in the criteria.
