I think it's the "fresh-faced MBAs" that have come into the airline that are part of the problem. The performance pay structure means that management get focussed on achieving their bonuses, quite frequently to the detriment of the wider interests of the airline because they are solely managing upward. It does not reward people who stand up for what is right or point out inconvenient issues.
