June 10, 20223 yr You would take a Wizz Air flight knowing that Chief executive Jozsef Varadi said: " Pilots and staff should go " the extra mile " when tired so that the airline could avoid canceling flights. "? https://www.bbc.com/news/business-61741139
June 10, 20223 yr Of course there is no possibility that he could actually consider reducing the amount of scheduled flights to a realistically manageable number so they fit with the staffing levels and operational capabilities of the company. You know, making an overall intelligent decision about something which is after all, a CEO's job. Nope, far better to come up with a greed-based over-stuffed schedule which could only succeed in a managerial fantasy world where he fondly supposes everyone can do the work of two or three people, which has his staff running around like crazy trying to do the work and having more accidents, but obviously with no chance of being able to manage all the scheduled work. Then, when such terrible management results in entirely unsurprising conclusions, don't own up to not doing a good job yourself; nope, instead have a pop at your staff for being lazy and causing additional expense when in fact it is his own appalling, unachievable, short-sighted and greedy managerial decisions which are the cause of it all. And that's not even touching on the safety issues relating to such matters which have frequently got this particular CEO into hot water and attracted widespread condemnation from many people, including several world leaders, and resulted in numerous legal challenges toward the airline too. Well folks, you know what to do. Just don't fly with them and hit this reprehensible buffoon in his wallet, since it's clearly the only place where he has any feelings at all.

June 10, 20223 yr Author The British Airline Pilots' Association regarding the statements by the CEO of Wizz Air said: "The British Airline Pilots' Association says safety must not be put on the backburner as airlines race to recover after Covid and return to profitability. The pilots' union has spoken up following concerns voiced by its members and in the wake of a number of concerning incidents, including unacceptable comments made by the Wizz Air CEO József Váradi. BALPA says safety is always number one for its members and it is concerned some airline CEOs and managers may be prioritising profits at the detriment of passenger and staff safety. BALPA is calling for Mr Váradi to clarify his comments by him. " https://www.balpa.org/Media-Centre/Press-Releases/BALPA-warns-airlines-must-put-safety-before-profit
