No, thats just a sign of more capacity in the market, that already has quite an overcapacity. In fact, carriers are trying to fight an overcapacity war. That has nothing to do with a pilot shortage.
A pilot shortage means better T&Cs as airlines actually fight for pilots. That is not happening in Europe. In fact, Lufthansa mainline just signed a new CLA deal where the total T&Cs shrink by up to 15% for the next 5 years and that completely gives up their scope clause.
Yes, having been made redundant, well I’m actually still employed, just without a salary and therefore living of benefits, i do have quite a few offers. Those at home are insanely bad, with the exception of easyjet, and on first glance, ryanair. Financially interesting offers are without an exception in Asia, the US is after all a closed market (as is the UK currently for those with a german medical).
