This current trend seems to be beyond creating doom and gloom for negotiations. It's the reality resulting from this razor-thin focus on quarters, and the mentality arriving to just eat all the meat and fat left on the bones of the company. "Customers? People, Service? What's that? Monthly bidpacks have a deadline for being posted? We don't care."
If you fly in Europe, just ask our ramp personnel at any station about our current reputation. The long-held prestige associated with the brand is pretty much gone.
I had never felt that way here before, that I'd even close to consider a pax carrier as a good choice vs us. A real shame.
