rajyindee Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 A news conference to be held later this morning apparently ... from The Nation ... THAII's urgent press conference August 24, 2014 10:26 pm Thai Airways International will tomorrow host a press conference, following a report of mass resignation by over 200 pilots.The report cited that the pilots were concerned with the airline’s fragile financial position. In the first half of this year, the national airline showed Bt10 billion in net loss. The outlook remains weak given fierce competition introduced mainly by low-cost airlines.

harrry Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 My guess is that financially if this is true Thailand can save millions. Pay rates on a world scale are much lower than they recieve. New pilots maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
