A bit of misinformation on this thread and the usual trolls full of spleen but it is all ‘sort of’ true.
All except 1 of the remaining expat B777 Captains and F/Os did receive 60 days notice of termination.
The company has also indicated that they would like to reduce the expat F/Os on the A321 by 35 in 2017.
The expat pilots given notice were told that there were no upgrade opportunities for them even if they had previously been told that there was.
Subsequent to this, some expat pilots on the B777 have been advised that they may now remain but so far, have not been given any other details.
Rumour has it that one B787 Captain received a letter stating that he may be given notice as he was surplus to requirements at the same time as there were 3 new expat B787 captains training.
The fact that management of the airline is dysfunctional is beyond dispute by both expats and locals.
The Company has had for some time now, had a well known aim of Nationalising the operation by 2018.
