don't get me wrong, warmkiter...

I whish you all the best in your battle to secure your jobs and conditions if they are going to be eroded, all the industry will benefit!

You are fighting a battle against movement of jobs proscpects and pilot capacity to other carriers like Condor, germanwings etc etc and now you brought LH Italia in the battleground as well.

The whole point is that this italian subsidiary will be a different animal because is a company operating in Italy on routes that so far are not in competition with Deutsche LH routes, including many domestic ones.

I can tell you from personal experience that if LH wants to gain market shares opening bases across european countries it does need to provide employment opportunities equally to all european citizens.

I am afraid a german company employing only or mostly german would not be welcome by the italian authorities, and this is the main reason why LH is asking for an italian AOC for the new subsidiary and registered the company in Italy.
