Hi
A general question on all Norwegian operation. Rumor has it that all recruitment has stopped! Anyone in the training department or in the process that can deny or confirm this? |
Heard the same thing. Rumours are about major restructuring after Xmas as the company are out of cash. IAG seems to be the rumour of the week, again. Hope for the best �� |

I fear it is a little more complicated than just not recruiting DE CPT/RCAs. Having passed the assessment in August of this year, and hearing very little regarding course start dates, an email came through in the last few days (4+ months later) saying there will be no course dates for the start of 2019. Coupled with the fact a number of roadshows appear to have been cancelled in the last couple of months, presumably they were not solely intended to attract DE CPT/RCA, I would conclude either NAS recruited/attracted far more qualified RYR pilots than they hoped for, or they are having to scale back growth expectations inline with available cash.

I'm in the pool (CAPT787) and I got the same letter. If it were RYR pilots flooding the 737, it would not effect the 787. |
Swedish aoc on its way, irish going out. Basically most if not all SH bases and some LH aircrafts also to be transferred. Swedish tax on flying gone, so a bit of shuffling at the moment. I believe recruitment will commence again after new years.

Any more info on that? |
The Swedish AOC is already up and running, although unclear when and how many A/C will transfer, currently 1 Max on the AOC with 1 more to follow soon.
|
Latest rumor today is that Norwegian has canceled some initial type rating courses.
Any one on the inside can confirm this? |
Bases are being closed and people are getting laid off.
|
People are not getting laid off but, offered a transfer to long haul or other bases in the network including some of the Scandinavian bases.

Well that info sounds like it came directly from O’leary’s office.. it’s BS, no such reductions as of yet.. just like Norwegian did not go under at New Years eve or was taken over by IAG on january 2nd.. stick to what Norwegian communicate, nothing else.. |

The removal of the crew meals and other factors relating to the hotel accommodation is however related to the 737. The pay cuts however aren't. The options regarding the pay cuts are apparently: 1: 7% FD / 4% CC 2: 5,8% FD&CC Nothing is decided there yet however. Shema Y'Israel.... or what should I say. |
It’s from the BALPA comms sadly. These are just ‘options’ for the time being. |
