For someone who has recently left XL, and who has alot of friends there i feel very sad about the whole thing.
They are a great company to work for and if i hadn't been offered a slightly better position i'd still be there.
I think as long as the fleet have been streamlined then everything will start to work it's self out.
It's a differcult time for many airlines at the moment and sometimes the only way to survive is to make forced savings. Unfortunately these savings usually start with the work force.
Without stating the blindingly obvious, it's going to be a tough winter at XL but with the characters they have at the company i'm sure they will be fine.
Good luck to you all.
