Money makes the world go round -especially in Switzerland.
Yes, you got that right Stumpie !
Especially in Switzerland. The Swiss have very little respect for international (or national) law as skypointer has illustrated so well in his/her posts. Bending every international law and standard possible has made this country very rich with money from
white collar criminals, drugs dealers and
despots, but it has also led to the current mess within Swiss International Air Lines.
Applying "industry standards" when it suits you to justify the higher MD11, A330 and A320 salaries while at the same time applying "best practice" when dealing with seniority (by shoving roughly 1000 ex-Crossair pilots below you on the seniority list) is a perfect example.
