Question From CX to BA

At least one has been hired and at least two more have interviews.

You would have thought that Oneworld would have a no poaching agreement, guess not.

I want to congratulate our flt ops management team for the continuous errosion of a once great career airline. You guys are doing a terrific job! Here's to your bonuses!

What if you want an Oz or LA base though?
Then you would have to join Qantas or American / Alaska / United / South West.

You can't get a base with CX anymore unless you have right of abode. So bases is no longer a benefit with CX unless it is in your home country.

Don't believe everything you read Fac6. The UK is no more 'going down the toilet' than anywhere else. WE have problems with the idle and with EU lawmakers but all the rest are striving for the best outcome. If you'd rather live in HKG then - so be it - but that doesn't mean we're doomed. We just have to plod on without you. Hardly going 'down' anywhere - what did you do to improve matters? Ah yes - leave............
Exactly!!

Does BA have a Star Chamber?

More like 'Ship Jumping' rather than poaching I fear!

Sqwak,

FYI, Southwest does not have an LAX base. You could live in LA though and commute to OAK, LAS, or PHX.
