Dude you are a classic example of someone who just utters words without verifying the facts. The strikes happened because post merger of Airindia and Indian airlines, the salaries dropped drastically. The merger was itself a questionable as both airlines were running in profit. t was a game plan of certain politicians with investment in airline sector, with one of them having sinking airlines of there own. As a result of merger AIRINDIA lost several profitable routes to private players hence the profits tumbled. The pilots who were flying international routes such as Singapore and middle-east were flying India only and there salaries reduced to one-fourth as the flying bonus of international routes were gone. But you wont believe this cause you never check facts. And what is with airindia service? Its not international class but it is not as bad as you speak. As someone who travels by AirIndia atleast 5 times month, I would say the service is good on Domestic routes (except for Mumbai-Delhi). I would say Airindia is as bad as any domestic ariline. >> The political masters of > > Also a part.

Govt. accounts go through bigger scrutiny than private accounts. Else how did things like 2G scam came out? Even CAG report has said that there was a delay in buying new aircrafts for Airindia due to political delays causing losses to airline. The purchase of aircraft was delayed by Govt. by couple of years. But you wont believe all this and wont bother to do some research on Airindia downfall.

These organizations proved jobs at certain terms and people working there are free to find another job if they dont like the terms. You surely can go to any length to ensure that you wont believe anybody else's points. regards Vivek -- The hidden harmony is better than the obvious!! _______________________________________________ network mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fosscom.in/listinfo.cgi/network-fosscom.in
