Do you guys remember several months back,when the fog caused massive disruptions.

Makes their new policy a drop in the ocean, for savings! Very hard to take these people seriously!
Can't wait to see how they try to recover the aircraft next time the aircraft are parked all over the middle east, after scre*ing the pilot group as they have!
No doubt many of our collegues will find it impossible to say no but think they'll still have a more difficult time recovering the schedule!!
