still trying to drop a trip. IF that happens, I will be happy to waste part of my day at HQ and I will gladly ask why flights are being planned at a CI that the aircraft can't safely and comfortably fly.....is it so the pilots can fly more time at no cost to EK?

A few of the whiz-bangs we employ ran the numbers with oil at $80 per barrel for the last quarter, after the hedges ran out.
It showed a 12week profit share. The issue is that oil has been NOWHERE near that price for the last 3 months. So it should be far above that.

The issue with the raise is that it is permanent. The PS is only a one time pay, so much easier for them to swallow. But recruitment is hurting badly and only a healthy increase everywhere is gonna fix that.

Here's hoping.
