Wait 3-6 months and you won't have to scab
Nice one BB,
So we have effectivley turned the argument away from management and onto the new joiners. Lists, vilification and a few good punch-ups should serve the companies aims nicely.
Let's get a real good war going between pilots, and that should nicely help us all by allowing management to play one against the other.

So folks....lets see if I have this one right!
Half the industry would consider me a scab if I turned up at cx and the other half wouldnt!
I know v.little about the situation at cx as I have just started to entertain the idea of working in asia, but it seems quite controversial to say the least.

Points regarding the AOAs failures and discussions on blacklisting aside. Seriously- how long is this still going to go on for? We have all been making the same sort of posts for a year and a half already. How much longer?

Approaching 11 months,almost double the time asked, since the original post and 1yr9mnths since the start. How much longer would the AOA like? Indefinately? This has no credibility anymore.
short flights long nights
I would also like an answer on this, Just how long is it that we have to wait?

With respect...so? War in Middle East, Share market falls, Petrol prices up, this all happens around the world each day....but, people HAVE, RIGHT NOW, TODAY, offers for interviews with CX. For almost two years, people have been told not to accept a job at CX, not to have an interview, not to apply. Just to wait. But to wait for what? With all of everything going on, CX HAVE continued to advertise for pilots AND continued to upgrade pilots internally, so it seems, there is a need.
So, I ask again, how long must people wait?

SOPS,
If I were you I would lie down in a cool dark room. Things are VERY serious out here and I think you will find recruiting, upgrading and fleet transfers somewhat on hold for a while. As and when things get better you will hear about it. In the meantime suggest you pour yourself a frosty and chill out.

SOPS,
The global overreaction to the SARS outbreak has decimated the airline - 40% of flights cancelled, the average load factor for those flights that are left is hovering around the 35% mark and forward bookings are disappearing fast. Aircraft have been parked, all recruitment has stopped, no new training courses are going ahead and all other training is under review. The company is doing everything it can to cut costs in order to survive the massive downturn. You aint going to be hearing anything anytime soon buddy!

sops, i have been in 18 months now. no regrets, good job and plenty of mates to drink with in honkers and down route. i put my foot on the throttle when the guys here started getting up graded. they had no concern for the 49's so why should i give up a career path if the 49's pals wouldn't !! you may have missed the boat but if you get an interview and job offer my advice is take it. you gotta take control of your own life at some stage.
