11 flights cancelled due to PIA, PALPA tiff

[Dubious]

The ongoing dispute between Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) and PIA Airlines Pilots Association (PALPA) has led to cancellation of at least eleven flights on Friday, causing immense problems for the passengers.
The dispute started when the Civil Aviation Authority revoked licenses of two pilots, forcing the PALPA to announce non-cooperation with PIA authorities.
According to PIA spokesperson, talks are underway with PALPA on the Working Agreement.
According to sources, PK-302 flight from Karachi to Lahore, PK-303 from Lahore to Karachi, PK-295 from Rahim Yar Khan to Abu Dhabi were cancelled on Friday while PK-247 from Lahore to Damam, PK702 from Manchester to Islamabad were delayed by one hour and PK-584 from Karachi to Dera Ismail Khan faced two-hour delay.
As per PALPA’s directives, the flying crew has not delayed any Hajj flight but reports speak of massive delays at Jeddah Haj terminal.
Meanwhile, passengers have been advised to call 111-786-786 for getting information about their flights.
The PIA has also activated its call centers to inform passengers about any delay in the flights through SMS and phone calls.

Why don't they just fire those pilots....There are many newer pilots available willing work for $hit salary due to unemployment...

Money is everything. All else is bull shit. It's an ugly reality. It's better to recognize this unpalatable fact of life.

Why is that all the compulsory teaching and exhortations of Islam over the decades are not having their desired effect in a overwhelmingly Muslim society? Before prescribing more religion as the treatment, why not assess the efficacy of the existing dose?

Money is evil only when others are getting it more than me, right?

Pakistan should have revoked the Medical Licenses of doctors who participated in the strikes at hospitals where people died due to the lack of manpower.

These types of strikes will only continue until strong action is taken. Its ok to strike, but like the sentence above when you're in a position that is life or death, there's a more civilized process to go through.

Revoke the licenses of a couple of pilots who refuse to fly from the large airports, Karachi/ Lahore/ Islamabad/ Multan etc and the rest will get their act together.

and this is related to PIA ....how?

 

[VCheng]

Because it was claimed that "Yea seems like the world is running on money no morals no ethics no brain no nothing to do with humanity just money money money!" and yet the emphasis on ethics is high in a religious society like Pakistan, from where the PIA staff are recruited.

far fetched....even in the great secular west, we have a modules called lab ethics, social ethics, theological ethics, research ethics etc and you just had to pick religion

 

[VCheng]

Because in Pakistan, ethics education flows from its predominant religious teachings. Pretty direct connection.

Or may be the claim "Yea seems like the world is running on money no morals no ethics no brain no nothing to do with humanity just money money money!" was not correct.
