A lot of the Cabin Crew received the same standard letter, arrived late in true Viking style!!

Under UK employment law I believe you have to be initially advised that your job is "at risk" followed by a cooling off period, followed by the contract termination notice period as per the terms of your contract. Of course if a company goes bankrupt or into the hands of the administrators this is all forefitted by default, but this is not the case here is it? Viking are still operating but have apparently ditched their employees with no standard notice period whatsoever.......

Please do correct me if I'm wrong ??
