Hmm... Why would BA want to take back a Manager who previously deserted when they have just announced a massive cull of senior managers?
But back to Easy Jet... I certainly wish you all the best and I'm glad to hear that your company council is taking a hard line. The T&C's of our industry in general have taken some savage blows over recent years and its time the fight-back began.
Up until 911 things were just beginning to look up for us with EasyGoRyan chasing the wages up for type rated 737 pilots, but then Osama went and spoiled it all.
The good times can't be far away. It cost me £35k to train as a self improver 10/12 years ago, with the hope of an excellent salary and pension one day to look forward to. That equation seems to have changed more than slightly since then.
Supply and demand will always win in the end which is why the airlines have had it their own way for so long. Until the playing field tips in our direction, solidarity is the only option. They can't run an airline without pilots, can they?
I say again... "Good Luck".
