The (translated) posting is factually incorrect on so many levels Jonas / Shanwick.
1- pilots will not be required to commute to BKK at own expense.
2- health insurance is provided.
3- the conditions are not "appalling" admittedly fairly basic , but actually pretty comparable to similar jobs available in ME or Europe when you drill them down.
4- how is it in direct competition with European Norwegian routes ? I don't see B737 flying BKK - OSLO
There seems to be a lot of animosity towards this New Operation. It is a new operation and therefore the contract terms are as advertised. If we don't like them we don't accept them. I for one am in that decision making process right now and I do not fall into either of the categories mentioned in the email.
The fact is this operation requires experienced Long haul pilots, the market will dictate if the terms on offer will provide the required pilots. I suspect the package is just good enough to do that but time will tell.
Inaccurate and misleading statements are easy to make anonymously.
