EVA Air latest cost saving

The latest cost saving plan from our "managers"... "The Logo Lights will remain OFF at all times for cost saving".
Unbelievable.

Nothing new, it is LEGAL and was done by CX before during SARS. They managed to save a couple of hundred thousands dollars per aircraft per year. Good move !!

Why didn't they switch off the Nav Lights / sunrise sunset to save even more?

I have been on flight where the cabin crew had to distribute the toiletry / toilet papers among the cabin. All in the name of cost saving. How far do we have to go?
