Air France Low Cost Long-haul

Hi all,

Am I reading this right?

https://www.flightglobal.com/news/ar...ul-uni-431121/

They are setting up a low cost alternative, and pretty clearly say that they will pay pilots less and offer worse conditions. What I find concerning is that they see no problem in getting pilots to transfer from Air France.

Now this doesn't directly concern me as I'm with another company, but I find it terribly concerning that again pilot terms and conditions are being reduced.

Who are the pilots that will accept this sort of thing? Why would someone give up better terms? Why would a union even discuss this?

Wondering how long my career will last with this sort of thing happening more and more.

Cheers.
