stillalbatross. that's right...keep flogging the A-scale horse. Any other airline you care to mention has a 65 retirement age. No matter where you go, that will be the reality. Why don't you grow up a bit and realise that your only hope of a 'proper' career depends on you convincing/coercing the company to provide you with proper pay, benefits and working conditions. Trying to prevent your fellow colleagues from working to a sensible age is not going to achieve any of those things. The 65 debate is over....65 has won throughout the industry...won't be any different at CX.
