Remember, Sabena and Swissair? Guess they would never go broke either? They both had strikes recently......</font>
Those two shutdowns had NOTHING to do with strikes. Swissair had no labor problems to speak of, and SABENA employees only protested AFTER the carrier was grounded. Both were grounded due to finances, not labor. Aer Lingus employees don't like the results of the mediation they agreed to, so now they are striking. Good idea...
