I agree with you sidsnstars. - Without a doubt flight planning and slot coordination has to be considered a specialist role and anyone who thinks otherwise clearly is demonstrating a lack of understanding of the issue and job. The airspace over UK and Europe is getting more and more congested and if we start putting people in flight planning that do not understand it properly then its just going to make life harder for everyone.
I am sure that the controllers in Eurocontrol and London appreciate airlines who employ staff with much more of an understanding than those who just abuse the system and clearly dont understand?
