CTC Flexcrew
I heard a rumour Monarch maybe looking at CTC for cadets/flex crew.
Has anyone heard anything similar? Fingers crossed the terms will be different from EZ's!

Highly unlikely mate! Low hours and no experience equals low wages and crap conditions, and so it will continue as long as people keep bending over and taking it.

I would have thought there would still be rated and experienced B75/76 and A320 crew out of work at the moment, (eg GSM, BMI and others) who could be recruited and employed directly by Monarch, even if just on summer or temp contracts, without the need to take on ctc cadets?
Or is it just as simple as ctc and Monarch choosing to line each others pockets at the expense of crew t+c's, in preference to valuing more experienced crew??

If Monarch attempt to churn cadets in the way easyjet are, they will face strong opposition from the CC - with the robust support of the BALPA membership. For that reason, I don't think we'll go there.
