It is actually KQ that does not want to let go of the 777 pilots. Mainly 2 reasons.

1. They do not have funds to pay them off now. Some of those pilots have worked 30 years and will need send of package of approximately 20 million. For the total number of 28 Captains that is approximately 560 million bob.

2. The Turkish sublease agreement for the (3) 777-300 and the Oman Air (3)787 is for 3 years after which KQ may get the aircrafts back. That means they may need those captains 3 years down the road. With the current high experience pilot shortage globally they have to be smart or they may end up like Emirates currently grounding aircrafts coz of nil pilots.

So they cant retrench them coz they will need them at some point and they also cant maintain them on payroll coz of the costs. That is why the Ethiopian deal makes sense. Most of the pilots however want to resign get their money and go home but it is difficult seeing that KQ has blocked voluntary early retirement to all staff. There is where the conflict lies.


That 20 Million is the employer part of the provident?
So the other personal contribution is more or less 20 million.
So each of the affected pilots could easily take home 40 million?
Then why would a 55 year old pilot need to work again in the dangerous skies?
at 55 he can seat pretty and invest the money in any passive business and still live a fairly comfortable life.

Statistically speaking, flying is far safer than driving and with 10 more years of productivity I doubt many if any would choose to go into early retirement

KQ chief operating officer tenders resignation- One more senior executive has left troubled national carrier Kenya Airways, signalling the continuation of management restructuring that began in earnest last year. Yves Guibert, the carrier’s chief operating officer (COO), has given notice of intention to leave within the next two months, adding to the list of top managers who have resigned or sent home in the past 12 months. Kenya Airways chief finance officer Alex Mbugua, Rick Sine (fleet director), Gerard Clarke (commercial director) and Alban Mwendar (the human resources director) have left the company since last October amidst a wave of turbulence punctuated by pilot strikes. Mr Mwendar, who the board had requested to stay on to oversee the ongoing rationalisation programme, announced last week that he was exiting the airline to pursue other interests. Kenya Airways also sent Alex Avedi, the director of corporate quality, safety, security and environment and Captain Paul Mwangi, the director flights operations, on a leave of absence for an unspecified duration to facilitate dialogue between the airline and its disgruntled pilots.

@maka that is a big blow indeed, but allegations around over his role in assigning agents authority to discount ticket prices.. For those who did not know Mr. Guibert. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Computer and Mathematics, and a degree in Business and Administration from Paris Sorbone University. Between 1989 and 1995, Mr.Guibert worked for Air France as an Assistant Station Manager and would replace any Airport Manager during their absence due to his excellent adaptability and interpersonal skills to adapt to numerous airports set up and various cultures. Between 1998 and 2001, he worked as the Station Manager in Johannesburg, where he achieved many great things among them being to open South Africa for Virgin Atlantic and managed the operation. In 2001, he was promoted to an Airport Manager (West Africa) where he motivated a team and a territory unexposed to Virgin Atlantic. In 2005 to 2006, he was the Head of Grounds Services and was the part of senior management team. He was Director of Customer Services from 2006 until his appointment as Kenya Airways Ground Service Director.
