It seems to me that there's a cocktail of problems at easy.
First, very poor management causing operational troubles, allowing incompetent individuals to continue to screw things up, and ruining the company's value (47% drop in shares in last year versus 41% drop at BA and 7% rise at Ryanair).
Second, for whatever reason, the pilots are ranged against the management. Who's to blame?
Third, the management, instead of trying to get the pilots on-side, continue to try to drive down terms and conditions whilst they can get away with it.
Fourth, and crucially, the vote would not have been 'YES' without recommendation from the BALPA people. This is where these guys have been sold down the river, and it's yet another great reason not to waste your time and money on membership of this organisation.
Take an extra 1% on your pay guys, and stop wasting money backing up the colleagues and their advisers who've pushed through another deal which drives the industry down.
