DAT

So, how are things at DAT??

Rumours will know that DAT have laid off pilots, higher in seniority, but sent MPL pilots (with lower seniority) on "unpaid leave".

Are they skipping the list in DAT?

Considered all other factors the same; they recently were awarded 2 more routes in Norway in addition to being reawarded the Oslo-Florø route. The other routes being Oslo-Fagernes and Oslo-Røros. Again, if all other factors are the same, there shouldn`t be a need of laying off pilots. Perhaps the other way around? Would be nice for them in times like these.

Robert, that seems to be correct.

Guttn, they have lost some business. Operations outside of Norway.

That would explain it then.

DAT were not awarded Oslo-Røros and Oslo-Fagernes. Those routes went to DOT. I know DOT is in close cooperation with DAT, but according to the rules for FOT, they cannot mix crew/airplanes/operations.
