Flathatter, just as a matter of discussion, when I went through the interview session which was last Oct, I did that in Stockholm, being Swedish. I was questioned which base I'd prefer if I'd be hired and responded CPH. I was then told that I ought to be really certain on which base I choose because you can only change ONCE. At least that's what I was told then. Maybe that has changed. I'm very happy with my choice anyway.
Hung, Interesting that you mention that combined short/long haul for Airbus pilots, 'cause at the interviews we were told that that's how it was going to be. But that has changed now you're saying? And how is the bidding when it comes to the bus. Do you bid A340/A330 as one bid or is it going to be differentiated as flying one or the other? And who is going to be flying the SAS/BMI A330 going to New York? Is it SAS F/O:s with that BMI Skipper or is SAS skippers flying in the RHS for A/C induction? (A little off the subject I know but it's just interesting to get an insight)
The whole way that BMI deal works is very curious... I heard that the start of that may be slightly delayed.
Anyway, great to hear that the MD fleet will remain, and thanks for all of your interesting answers....
