Chatting to a chap who had joined the company at 22 (30 years ago) the other day, he was confident a lot of senior guys would be well up for any serious redundancy offers.
I would not be suprised if TUI have to recruit within 12 months after maybe 30 or 40 expensive redundancy packages in the short term.

Informed sources are quoting a figure of 120 pilots to be made redundant.
Edit: Or offered voluntary redundancy, which will be via seniority (top down).

It's VERY UNLIKELY that there will be any forced redundancies.. Plenty of very senior guys waiting for a good pay deal to retire.. Quite a few F/Os leaving in the hope of a quicker promotion. If the multi fleet flying is abandonned then they'll need more crew. An increase in long haul will require more crew too (despite a reduction in the shorthaul)
Then there is part-time and unpaid leave.. So I'm pretty sure no one at the bottom of the seniority list will be made redundant. At worst there might be a few people forced out of their preferred base..
