Straight from the third floor drunks.
The UK Labor Department couldn't understand why the Manchester crew couldn't just do a 777 conversion and switch to pax flying. It was politely explained there were "restrictions with the contract and a breach would have the AoA in... would have the AoA.... would have the..... Great Idea!!! We'll start straight away!"
Watch this space.

The TUPE legislation is law for those who work in the UK, and the UK law isn't interested in preserving the rights of those outside the UK who demand employment rights on a system which isn't necessarily recognised, and which has less basis in law than the rights of those already employed and about to be seriously inconvenienced, or made redundant.
Just stating the facts before anyone decides to flame me.

Surely, if they want to, CX will just convert all MAN pilots to the 777. Who would do anything? Certainly not the MAN pilots. What would the rest of us do? Go on strike? Enact CC? Write to our MP's/Fleet Managers/moan on Pprune?
Stand by because CX look a bit foolish right now and they don't like that (you'd think they'd be used to it).
As somebody said - watch this space - maybe they will close all the Euro bases - what would we do then?
Almost certainly - nothing.

If CX started closing bases en masse, I think a lot of wheels would stop turning. Not only would many be in search of new employers, just about everyone would be max PRAs and minimum cooperation. I would think those in Hong Kong but hoping for a base someday would be similarly pissed off and act accordingly. Accordingly, I think CX would be very unwise to declare war on bases in general.

MAN Base
No carte blanche offer, but while all this has been going on EY did have a recruitment day just for the MAN boys at the Park Inn LHR, turnout was very good I hear. I look forward to working for an airline that doesn't come with the industrial baggage that CX has managed to accrue over the years,
