Is Norwegian here in 5 years?
There is many reasons why Norwegian is short of pilots.
I would go there if they wanted me and I got the base I prefer.
At least I dont have to by my own coffee and uniform!
Norwegian not being able to hire and train sufficient pilots , second year in a row is just pure stupidity.
The pay is for some of us not good enough , and here we are at the core problem:
Norwegian can not afford to pay what they do , never mind more.
Why? They had to sell a stack of Norwegian Bank stocks so as not to default on their loans.
The seat kilometer cost went up and are now way higher then any other loco.
The Director of Finance Mr Foss walked out the door with no notice one day.
So, promptly the stocks dropped 25% over 5 days!!
They are a buisness and are not making a profit.
I hope Norwegian makes it and start treating and paying Pilots better.
But,like all low cost startups it is a Ponzi sceam and some time it works and some times it dont.
Then there is the bet in Norwegian press that OLeary shall snap them up.
( Sorry , could not help myself.)
