X-centric
They were all going to build their time & then leave & here I would ask the question, "where are you going to go to?" All of the airlines have continually lowered their Ts & Cs & there are now no places left that offer anything like the conditions that we all took for granted back in the eighties & nineties.
X-centric, that's exactly I ask myself everyday to be honest.
Im in a LCC in asia, and this question regularly comes in my mind.
No need to be at FR to ask this same lol
That's why I am doing a business on side and study online. Then I will leave the industry if nothing better comes.
As you said even majors lower...Like many expat I could go to Dubai but, that's not for me and I am sure of it. Leaving asia for Dubai, I do not see it as an improvement in my life, except for the money only (but i don't care that much).
What else, oh europe ? where ? EZ ? same thing : leaving a LCC to go to another LCC, I don't see it as a climb on the ladder. It's just a horizontal movement. Not really vertical.

anyway you raised a very good point.

ah and of course standing up it's a nice idea, but as expat, you do that and in the second youre fired...
