Knight of the Long Knives?
 
Two weeks without a post from any of the EK mob which has to be some kind of record. Has there perhaps been another ramp-up in social media monitoring by Al Stasi?

White Knight 4th Aug 2021 19:33

Nah. People either flying a lot (overtime) or busy trying to make ends meet (unpaid leave pilots)!

rkenyon 5th Aug 2021 15:30

The fact that the thread is locked may have a bearing...

Basically there is nothing more to say……..apart from trading tips on how to avoid body odour!

Juan Heych 11th Aug 2021 03:03

Some things to talk about:
EK is looking for pilots. Emails sent to some that were kicked out, and DECs on the way.

ThrustAssymComp 11th Aug 2021 09:18

is there any chance for new comer?

Flaps0 11th Aug 2021 17:02

Probably quite unlikely as they've got circa 1200 redundant A380 guys to work through first.

desert witch 11th Aug 2021 19:55

I believe they mailed all ex380, or nearly all.
What is the reaction of the incumbent so far?
Yes?
No?
No :mad: Way?
Beer is too good and cheap where I am now?
The US has jobs for all?
All of above are incorrect?

Tables are turning, that's for sure.

Capn Rex Havoc 11th Aug 2021 23:51

ex Cabin crew have received the letter as well.

Buckshot 12th Aug 2021 06:27

Any movement on command courses on the Triple?

Fired600 12th Aug 2021 06:56

A380 pilots emailed, not for recall but for expression of interest to return. No 777 pilots emailed, weird they want the whale in the times of probable low traffic loads but not the tractor.

oneeyedrat 12th Aug 2021 08:12

The tractor appears to be working flat out, if not the frames then the crew and probably little training capacity for new crews other than cadets.

Fired600

They're not as low as you may think!

flareflyer 13th Aug 2021 17:20

Anyway you can just register. I don’t think they will hire other pilots for quite a long time.

desert witch 20th Aug 2021 00:58

So...
The knight of the Long Knives sends an email on a THURSDAY NIGHT to SOME of their axed 380 Pilots, with the new terms.
Of course, as new joiners.
Ah! And it mentions they are also opening regular recruiting parallel to this.
And consent to check medical history with the clinic. In case...
Two days to sign the stuff and reply.
Some haven't finished moving or unpacking. Some are losing twenty years of seniority in one go.
Classy.

Juan Heych 20th Aug 2021 02:11

I think It’s best just to block emails from this outfit.
Move on from the disaster.

Fired600 20th Aug 2021 06:45

desert witch

What are the ‘new terms’ for the old guard?

Giuff 20th Aug 2021 06:48

Zero seniority.

Fired600 20th Aug 2021 07:05

It’s not good but seniority generally made zero difference in EK, in fact it actually got you fired in the end!
What about the pay etc?


Giuff 20th Aug 2021 07:10

You are right, but still is a symptom of what will be.
I understand also company accomodation mandatory and a reduced basic salary according to the covid situation.
