During the Joint Delegation Meeting on 05 February 2020, the current situation regarding the Corona Virus was discussed with management.
In this meeting, the Pilot Representatives were informed that it is planned to avoid all layovers in PVG, CGO, PEK, and XMN.
According to management pairings will be changed to operate OVB – PVG – OVB and OVB – CGO – OVB with a double crew. Management is considering a similar solution for PEK and XMN but no final decision regarding these pairings has been made.
For the time being flights to HKG remain unchanged.
Your Representatives addressed your stated concerns regarding possible commercial positioning into and out of China. Additionally, we asked management to provide all pilots with regular updates regarding the operation and layovers in China.
