If we are talking percentages..........
100% of Norwegian's LGW based 787 pilots are still employed with an agency rather than directly employed with Norwegian.
Does this fact make Kjos a 100% liar ?
___________________________________________________________
In his
June 1, 2015, letter to the DoT, Kjos states:
"It has been and will continue to be our firm policy to offer all pilots and cabin crew employed through agencies the opportunity to transfer their employment to a company in the Norwegian Group at the end of a transitional period"
The Kjos letter, Exhibit 1, can be viewed at the following link:

Kjos takes strike revenge by terminating a union delegate
Dagbladet Norway News reports that a union delegate active during the March strike has been terminated by Norwegian.
Both the NPU and PARAT are 100% behind the pilot and if necessary will take the matter to court.
A Norwegian manager stated they "
respect unions and have a good relationship with unions since beginning in 2002".
During the strike Norwegian separated the Scandinavian division into three companies without any union consultation whatsoever. Norwegian continues to use agencies to supply its pilots and cabin crew, thereby preventing any union representation or collective agreement directly with Norwegian.
