Lufthansa Pilots = Miserable Failure

[Dan Roman]

Hey it got your attention, did it not?


Bye bye,

Right out of the Glen Beck "it may be a total distortion of reality but if I throw in enough insults it makes me right" playbook.

The Germans are too busy watching foootball to negotiate...

Whereas U.S. legacy pilots just never felt like hanging on to it.

I love your answer above. Maybe you should ask someone who is involved in it (like a Lufthansa pilot---try PPRUNE next time), before calling them a miserable failure.

Lufthansa has had 95 seat E190s flying at Augsburg, Air Dolomiti, and Cityline for a couple years now, along with Avro-85s flying into London City and other European cities. They have a very complex structure over there, along with Lufthansa subsidiaries (BMI, Swiss Air, Austrain, etc) that all could be used to compete against mainline Lufthansa at any moment, until this new agreement was made. Doesn't sound like the best result, but it would be hard to criticize their decision WITHOUT really knowing what is going on there. Obviously you fell for that. Don't only use a WSJ article as your only source next time. You will continue to look dumb.
