Are you guy's going to take action or is it just more hot air.

I notice that the peak is just around the corner, which peak is that?
From where I am sitting Winter Season is just around the corner and traditionally that is the quieter time.

Have they filled the winter Canadian complement or as you don't want the Canadians over here in the summer has this detachment been cancelled.

You can't have it both ways!!!!!

And no I am not management at TCX/MYT left that some time ago

whether we take action or not depends on the on going consultation with the company.

When we talk of peaks we mean the peak booking season for new holidays. Just after Christmas. A strike is not really what you want customers focusing on when they are looking to book their summer holiday.

As far as I know no captains are going over to Canada to operate in the left seat, but could be wrong. But some FOs are, much to the disgust of the rest of us.

I think a left seat to left seat agreement is unacceptable to the majority of the work force no matter what happens. A RHS agreement can be reached if there are no compulsory redundancies.

Both FCA/TUI and MYT/TCX Captains are deploying to Canada this winter to operate Skyservice aircraft as captains/left seat.

In the know,

That is very sad news. And just goes to show that when the pound signs flash, some people will sell their soul for a few extra quid.

TUI Captains have been asked by BALPA to only go if we have an agreement. I hope this is respected.

VS package

What is the general consensus on the voluntary package that TCX pilots have been sent. Do you think there will be many takers?

Probably.

Potential redundancy figures reduced from 100 to 6, without anyone accepting the VS package.
The main drive for people accepting the package is to try and reduce the potential demotions.....which currently stands at about 45ish, i think.

I hear that so far 27 have accepted the EVS package. I'd be amazed if anyone is demoted or made redundant.
