The trouble with easyJet is that they always blame someone else (thunderstorms etc.....no other airline cancelled flights because of that...). They would not look at mirror. The company is proud that they have managers who do not have any experience in aviation before ej, and thus are not "polluted" with traditional airline ideas. Yet you can not run airline without some basic principles related to the number of crews per a/c, duty time limitations etc. The managers are expecting to get millions in bonuses after the GO acquisition, yet they should be sacked after all the mismanagement. ej probably have the worst management of any airline around. City investment fund managers should look very carefully where their money is going to!
Apparently the pilots union is very close to industrial action, with a number of items that the company is refusing to talk about.
There are no pilot managers at ej in charge of anything, that is due to the fact that pilots are simply loathed at ej. The management pilots at ej only look after things like reprimanding pilots who are too tired to fly (and refusing to fly fatigued), or delaying upgrades of F/Os if they refuse roster changes etc.
EasyJet is a mess. The best hope would be to get Barbra Cassani to rescue it! Where r u Babs...
