@harry,
Yes you make logical arguments, and yes it will not change my point of view.
However the fact that easy, Virgin and others are literally refering on their webpage to Monarch people, rather than "rated people" is a slap in the face for the people who are rated but can not apply because they are not coming from Monarch.
I was also unlucky in the past being unemployed. But guess what? Nobody did me a favour, i had to redo everything. I learned the hard way. Empathy for the M. People, yes absolutely, but also for the not monarch people trying to get in somewhere but getting bypassed just because of some bankruptcy of a beloved airline coming in the media. And yes, you can call me naive.
Well i guess this is indeed a endless discussion. Just lets hope aviation in Europe keeps on booming.
