How many tens of thousands of pilots are there ? Yes, pilots have some platform unique training, but there are still a lot of pilots around and there are plenty of people who want to do the job.

How many hundreds of thousands of cabin crew are there ? How easy is it to train and replace one ? Does it take a degree and four years education before they start crew training - No. Could you take someone out of a cafe and train them in a few weeks - yes. Sorry folks but cabin crew are a commodity these days.

Yes, easily replaceable - I understand why people here don't like that as it suggest they are not as special as they think they are.
