Default Kingfisher pilots strike; over 40 flights cancelled

Kingfisher pilots strike; over 40 flights cancelled

Sunday, July 15, 2012

Over 40 Kingfisher flights were cancelled on Saturday due
to a strike by its pilots to protest non-payment of
salaries, as airline promoter Vijay Mallya warned them
not to “disgrace” the company by talking to the media.

The cash-strapped airline’s schedule was disrupted as 12
flights out of Delhi, 18 Bangalore, six from Mumbai and
several others from all across its network were
cancelled, causing immense hardship to passengers.

The passengers booked on these flights were re-booked on
other flights or given refunds, a spokesperson said.

Mallya wrote an open letter to all Kingfisher employees
saying, “If some of you think that cancelling flights,
speaking to media, or disgracing our company will produce
cash and salaries, you are wrong. This only makes my
efforts at recapitalisation more difficult by causing
concern and apprehension among our potential investors.”

About the terrorist Goon Squad:

"Myself, Mallu. Yourself?" (V. Bhattathiri)
tries his best to be a bully --
telling others what and when to post, where to post and
where not to post, deliberately publishing lies about
others, stalking and abusing them with hate speech -- but
fails miserably. He is really stressed out, and like his
lap dog Prem Thomas (who currently posts as "P. Rajah"
, and issues *death threats* to people),
is priming himself for conditions such as stroke and
heart disease. Others in the Goon Squad include
Dayashankar M. Joshi "DMJoshi" who
displays unquestioning obedience to Goon Squad thugs, and
the instigator who posts as "Bholu"

The Goon Squad currently posts most of their abuse
through eternal-september.org and by writing someone
else's name or handle in the "From:" header -- their
favorite now is " (note the extra "b"
and "gmail.com") to make it appear as if the posts are
from ", who has been a regular poster for
many years.
