Cathay Pacific union bemoans being left in dark by top brass

A union representing Cathay Pacificcrew called on members to sign a petition to prise out more information about a restructuring plan amid concerns that the carrier is set to cut jobs. “The whole crew community is shrouded in anxiety with numerous unverified news about redundancy circulating among social media groups,” Cathay Pacific Flight Attendants Union said in the petition, adding that it has been “constantly communicating” with management to reveal details of the plan and when it will be announced. “It is very disappointing that the company refuses to disclose any details of its proposal to the board,” said the union, which represents over 7,400 cabin crew, or a quarter of the Hong Kong-based airline’s local employees. Passenger numbers are down about 99% from usual and the airline has said it won’t survive unless it restructures.<br/>
