I had heard that only the initial 777 intake will be from outside
VB and after that they will promote from inside
VB. Anyone else heard anything along these lines? Would this mean a single
VB seniority list with 777 new joiners joining on the bottom.
If this is true then FOs might be "stuck" in the right seat for quite a while! If not, then the upgrade from right to left would otherwise expected to be quite quick as more aircraft arrive!
With stacks of EK and CX guys looking at this, getting a position might not be as easy as it sounds!
"Now where is that calculator to update that logbook?"
