320 FO

Today 8-9 320 FOs got a call to tower 2. Anyone has any idea what basis is it going on? Are we supposed to Just wait around to get a phone call now?

[Silver68]

Interesting. I heard in excess of 50 people. Who knows what's going on, I wish they would just communicate better.

[QRAviator]

Yeah I meant people I know first hand and got the calls today. All sorts, probation out of probation, more than 1 year in conpany, clean records etc.

[Taviator]

I know about 10 777 and 787 FOs, me included going to Tower 2 tomorrow. I've also heard of some 777 Captains and A350 Instructor. Again, some of these things I know only by ear but the FOs are surely true.
I think it will happen over the course of the next few days. Apparently it is mainly the FOs now. I cross my fingers that it wont be too many! Good luck to everyone, I'll find myself in the complaining-about-no-jobs-section again now

[QRAviator]

Saddened to hear that man. Could I ask how many years have you been here?

[Taviator]

All the FOs that I mentioned including me are here not long enough to receive EOSB. That'll tell you.
But the Captains I heard of were quite senior. Maybe above 60y, I don't know. So far, none of the fresh captains from my batch or the other batches I know have been called. Hoping it will stay like this but I believe that they've just started with the FOs.
Best of luck to you!

[QRAviator]

Sucks. All the best man. Hopefully you will get called back In and we all get to fly.

[QR777X]

Any update?

Does anyone know how many people will be fired?

Will they be having meetings during the weekend too?

[QRAviator]

Uncertainity

There could have been better communication for sure. Sadly that doesn't exist here.

[FlyingAce77]

Lets be realistic” ME3 airlines are famous for No communication” The level of stress families are going through is unimaginable to the Lads sitting in Tower 1,2,3.

[QRAviator]

7 of my friends have been let go in a single day, the fear and shock we all have around us is unimaginable. Especially mpls with 500 hours 100,000 gbp in loan and a worthless license.

I still got 2 A330 and 4 A320 SOs in my batch that havent been fired yet, your information is wrong.
Also, as of yesterday a friend had a 787 SO in his batch who was still not laid off yet, just training suspended.
