I don’t care about the training. European knowledge and medical standards are generally far more rigorous than the ones we deal with in the US.
I don’t care about the layover hotels.
The aircraft are probably beautiful, since most of them are brand new.
If you read my post history, I don’t believe I have ever discussed the safety of the airline, the professionalism of the crews, or the maintenance.
That isn’t what this is about. It’s about protecting the jobs and standard of living for pilots here in the United States. Norwegian playing by the rules. I want those rules to change. Preferably in a way that excludes them, and the other carriers that will follow, from the US market.
Not unless you are a designated agent, and or representative of MOP.
However, you miss the basic point that your own carrier, provided, you are employed by AA, UAL, or DAL, that they are probably committing greater harm to your lively hood with outsourcing your work in the name of code sharing.
If I may ask T28... how long have you been with a your current carrier?
