Well, after i faced a 25% pay cut this year (thank you Air Berlin) i gonna get another 45% pay cut at the end of this year (if the company is still alive that is).

??????????????????????????????????????? Where and how?????????


@Superced:
It is the German airline Airberlin, who first bought several surrounding airlines, felt like taking revenge for the disinherited and then spoiled it all because he overestimated his own abilities in this businness. And then finally: Once upon a time there was an oil price...

Now there is an excess of personnel... parked aircraft... cancelled destinations...
You can call it a policy of consolidation?! Who knows who is controlling this game...

But there is no payrise in Germany, at least not for everyone. Maybe the lucky colleagues from Lufthansa can tell a bit more.
Should be glad not to lose our job! I still remember the day I heard about the bankruptcy of another german airline a few years ago in the morning news, they showed all the employees standing in front of the gate: "Sorry, closed - and never reopened..." Some of the flying staff is now here - and I hope they don't have to face it all again.
