Lets not forget that PIA has not happened yet. NJS will get 3 days official notice. Whatever caused the disruption in Murin had nothing to do with PIA.

I'm happy for you to exercise your right. Your right to quit and get another job. Isn't there a pilot shortage?
If NJS pilots were KFC workers then yeah, it would be better to go and work for Maccas if the pay was better. We are pilots. Our earnings are dependant on seniority. Captains will find themselves as FO's again and FO's will go to the bottom of the list at a new company. They cannot afford to do this.

If any of the NJS pilots wanted to move up to QF or DJ I reckon they have just put a black mark on their resume.
Why would they want to? What is wrong with not wanting to go somewhere else? NJS operate high capacity RPT jet services, just as VB and QF do. The job is the same.
