If people choose to refuse a command (in seniority if you can call, what we have now, that
) for whatever reason I believe they should not get BPP. Think about it, if there were no bases & a pilot's number came up but declined the course because his roster may not be as good (say for commuting) or some other reason should he get the money ? Surely the pilot must take responsibility for his own decision & circumstances. I was under the impression BPP was for those pilots who are disadvantaged by CX <not> themselves. Pls don't read this as not having sympathy for those pilots who may be in less than ideal circumstances but isn't this the life we choose, which airline to work for, which country to live in or who you marry ? You normally can't have it both ways but in this airline it appears you can
