Indeed, it's certainly a step in the correct direction. However, why would anyone want the hassle, worry or cost of locating flights to/from Dubai, quite possibly utilizing a port not particularly convenient.

Additionally, surely the nature of cargo flying involves quite some positioning and increased duty times. The 15% wage reduction is nothing but an insult. Typically cargo carriers pay crew a premium owing to the nature of the work.

If the take up is again low and resignations continue at the current rate, there will be little choice other than to increase the package, which is well overdue, for all.
