The friend is a relative who is cabin crew. I won’t be asking them for their letter. My point was that the union that person belongs to has failed those that took VR in the most basic way. I thank...

Wow

So people left on VR , only for the T&C’s to change again after they all left? They offered MF a small rise and Legacy a massive cut, now those are superseded again. Incredible.

Industrial suicide by Unite.Good old Len, the ship is sinking so let’s blow a massive hole in the side. You’re right, who will book anything now. I know I won’t.

Indeed

obviously I was referring to the Cabin Crew getting something off the back of a renegotiation with engineers. Whichever way you look at it, it’s a shambles.

So not on the new contracts? Old contracts reinstated but with a 5% pay cut with loss of 3 days A/L? No 20% pay cuts or 40% for CSD’s? What a mess.

Agreed

Totally. They will survive, I’m sure. I have even booked a flight to Miami for April. Aviation has always been cyclic, but this cycle is a bit bigger. Good luck to all at Virgin.

Instructing

I’d say be careful and check CAA website tomorrow. True you can’t work from home but you still need to socially distance which would be difficult in a C152 or PA28.

Most of it now is essential movement of people (scientists, Medical experts, diplomats, repatriation) but mainly lots and lots of cargo. Including medical supplies as belly freight.

NY terminal delay-summer TS

Terminal delays in the NY Area in summer months are significant(due TS activity) and lead to thousands and thousands of minutes delay. ATFM measures are applied and can be robust.
