Dubaigong, I am not trying to convince you or anybody else for that matter. I can understand your point of view. I am not sure why you feel targeted though, and feel the need to go on the offensive....
Anyway, all I'm saying is that going back to Ryanair to commute and basically be on a 7/2 roster with all the inconvenients it brings is not an option, for me at least. If, like the rumour mill suggested, they offered you the base of your choice, then it would not be a problem. I would be back already. However, as I said, the rumour mill is wrong and there are no more bases available in Ireland or the UK (possibly other places). This is NOT a rumour, it is a fact. New policy and no flexibility on it.
