Jet Airways union says over 400 pilots left airline in past 7 months
More than 400 co-pilots and captains have resigned from the embattled Jet Airways in the past 7 months. National Aviators' Guild (NAG), the airline's pilots union, reportedly told its members that 410 pilots have left Jet Airways between September last year and March 31, 2019, which has left the airline with 1,527 pilots on its payroll. In the communique, the NAG also told its members about several airlines planning to wet lease Jet Airways' grounded aircraft. Rival airlines wet leasing Jet Airways' aircraft could help employ some of the staff that became unemployed after the debt-laden carrier suspended operations last week. "Wet lease plans are being looked at and clarity will be provided when modalities will be worked out and a concrete plan is available," reported the NAG. <br/>
