Of course, you don't tell them how to run their business. But you cannot tell me that destinations do not have a big effect on people's take home pay. The same people that you are trying to convince to contribute to the savings we all have to make.

So if your employer then tells you that he's bringing in people on 60% of your wage, and your wage depends greatly on where you nightstop, then you have to take a great interest in where these people will be going.

Yes, we took care of this potential problem a few years ago with our hourly rate. But if we hadn't, can you imagine the reaction to New Fleet for pilots?

BASSA must contribute the same as the rest of us (more in fact, given the damage they have done, IMHO). But l do not think it's in anyone's interest to have our frontline staff completely shafted. And unless BASSA convince the crew to go to the hourly system, they will take a great deal of interest in where new fleet is sent.
