Aer Lingus DECs for new Aldergrove base
Just heard this news coming from the NIO...
Aer Lingus look like they will be crewing the Aldergrove base with Direct Entry Captains and co-pilots - a big recruitment drive north of the border is on the cards!
Having tallked to one of the recruitment specialists apparently the contracts will be nothing like the lads in Dublin are on - especially the pension - and the contractors will be operating into and out of LHR on existing EI slots.
Don't know how this is going to go down with IALPA - as far as I know they have pretty tight restrictions on who operates the green machines into and out of LHR.
The announcement is due pretty soon - wonder how this will affect the share price?
