Dear Members,
the Lufthansa rescue has come very far - but unfortunately the future of the company is still uncertain. The German government and Lufthansa have finally agreed on measures that can secure thousands of jobs, at least for the time being. Now it is above all important that the EU Commission does not impose disproportionate requirements on Lufthansa regarding slots and sustainability, so that the company remains competitive. We will continue to monitor these developments critically and are in contact with government representatives in Berlin and Brussels.
Unfortunately, Easyjet has now announced cuts and, according to media reports, wants to get rid of up to 30 percent of its workforce. It will be a big task to keep as many jobs as possible in Germany. Of course, we are ready for negotiations! And at Tuifly and Condor we are also continuing to work with all sides to preserve as many jobs as possible. The recovery of the industry and the German airlines can only succeed together with the employees.
Many colleagues have sent us current photos of the Corona situation, among others Dominik Weniger, who took the cover picture of this issue. Thank you all very much for this, you are helping us a lot with our public relations work. Among other things, we have created a video overview, which you can find here on Twitter, for example.
In addition, we have the following topics in these waypoints: - Farid Merdaci is a new board member
- AIRPROX Magazin 2020 published
- IFALPA Training Considerations for Return to Operations
You can also find more current news on our social media channels on Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook. We wish you a good read.
With kind regards, Markus Wahl, VC Board and Team
