The problem is that it is only the beginning, you can't expect that they will snap anything back to the way it was because they will always want more; you give them an inch and they take a f.....! oh sorry, you give them a centimeter and they want a meter. Employee costs are a negligible part of the aviation costs and they never equate to profitability margins that will safe or doom an airline but they always equate to extra money for the share holders.
