In response to Raggyman's post, and i quote:
"A similar thing happened with Ansett in Australia. Their cabin staff wanted stupid pay rises, then went on strike..... In the end less people flew with them cause they were always going out on strike and then they collapsed."
Really? that's news to me, I was AN cabin crew for 9 years, and not once did i go on strike, and to the best of my knowledge nor did my colleagues. As for the supposed strikes causing AN to collapse, wrong again.
Sorry to be off the topic.
