Sorry guys, but it's just a planning mistake.
All CRJ900 were flown by SAS pilots, then SAS bought Cimber and transferred all CRJ900. All the cabin crew and pilots are still employed by SAS and have the right to "come back" when there is need for them in SAS. So for every new pilot they need in Copenhagen they have to take one from Cimber, and then employ a new one in Cimber. Together with a 25% expansion of Long Haul this winter the training department couldn't cope. Actually this has been planned for a few months now.

Negotiating will take place this year. Contract ends March/April.
