DFC,

because they are embarrased by the fact that it is clear to the world that they are maintaining tyheir terms and conditions in difficult times thanks to the fact that new entrants cost the company less.
How completely wrong.

easyJet has once again made a profit despite the management's best efforts to prevent this by applying appallingly bad judgement to the fuel hedging policy.

Permanent positions are not under threat and neither are their terms and conditions.

Any financial benefit that comes from these flexi-crew contracts goes straight into the management fund for bonuses.

The vast majority of senior pilots are greatly concerned about this turn of events and are emploring Balpa to come up with a solution.

I am disgusted that you believe that we would happily accept these aspirational young men and women on lesser terms and conditions to improve our own lives.

We are not management.
