It is just astonishing some of the stuff on here, someone mentioned watchdog a few pages back, maybe someone should feed all this back to the media so that passenegers know whats going on. I am a redundant FO from low/co fortunate enough to be back doing what i did before flying to pay the bills, but no one wants an FO with 1500hrs on a 737/3. Whether I'll ever get airborne again i am not sure as going abroad is not an option for me.
A mate of mine at Easy who went through the CTC scheme 3 years ago when it was a better deal said to me a few weeks ago that cadets are now being sent to Lyon to work, they aren't even given accomodation whilst there, so you have groups of 3 sharing one hotel room, beggers belief doesn't it one on earlies, one on lates,one on days off etc... not exactly condusive to restful sleep and being alert at work..
But as long as Easyjet are happy as they save a few ££££'s.
God help this industry it is truly
