I think people are reading too much into the absence of any mention of other IAG carriers. Sadly I expect that will come, but possibly caught up in other countries' rules on redundancy/severance notification process, which are typically quite specifically prescribed. Sadly I expect VY would take a hit, given tourism will take a knock.

I mentioned above that hopefully the process is voluntary for as many as possible. I thought that this would be a tall order, but at least for crew, perhaps not as much. We have heard before about a lot of churn on mixed fleet and a steady stream doing the job for 1-2 years before jumping. I also expect the experience of COVID will have prompted some to consider doing something else. Perhaps for many, and ideally all, the offer of severance will be welcome, (ie because they had already decided to move on).
