Glue Ball, I think the poster is trying to bring to light an unfair situation that has evolved from some fundamental changes in Air Astana. I believe this forum serves well in exposing malpractice in some airlines, introduced by people with poor man management skills, who would be better employed serving the community, instead of selfishly thinking only of themselves..
These airlines deserve bad publicity if indeed they are shafting their employees..and there was me thinking it was an Italian phenomena "Tutto Il mondo E un Paese"!!
