So Firefly.....
What is the point of a contract then?
You agree a rate for the season - sign an agreement and then 2 months into the agreement the other party decides they want more! How can you run a business like that?
How would/could airline operators cope with enforced increases to handling/cleaning/catering charges being upped at the drop of a hat?
Agreed there must be a point to their action - but why not sort it out at the time of contracting? Dont like the price - go elsewhere etc? There is only a finite supply of coaches on each island - so if they all stuck together at the appropriate time then perhaps matters could have been resolved then!Point is Firefly - why do we the airline have to suffer??
