theearl.....what?
Yes tour ops rule the roost...do you think an airline should be in control of a holiday company?
Same old same old....well...yes. Was it ever different? Don't see what your point is?
Heard a rumour that up to 12 aircraft may be leaving at the end of the year, with those who were made permanent...being made redundant which is quite bitter news if it becomes true. But like other comments, the leaders have said it depends on bookings. It all seems a bit knee jerk with recently promoted captains changing types, temporary summer basings being withdrawn, other options being added, leased aircraft etc. The management have asked people to volunteer for up to 4 days overtime per month, which to be fair is lucrative and there's obviously no obligation but it's another sign I think, that they're not certain themselves of the numbers they need for tomorrow, let alone the end of the year. We'll have to see what the cleaners say in 6 months
