It seems odd that the airline does not make money on a full flight. The Australia runs were not undersold, but yet they made a loss. Similarly the European routes make a loss. In fact, had it not been for the Indian sub-continent, the airline would have folded up, (or almost) a long time back.

Take the morale. Each and every pilot is afraid of the Damoceles sword that hangs over his head in the form of the DLR. The efficiency of the testing is hearsay, and the airline has a flimsy policy regarding who will undergo it and who will be exempt. All this leads to low morale.

Add to it the broken promises of the increment.

And then try to get the best out of your people?
