Not good news to wake up to.
British airline EasyJet today announced the reduction of 4,500 jobs, almost a third of its workforce, to deal with the shock of the covid-19 pandemic.
With this announcement, the company thus joins its competitors British Airways, Ryanair or Virgin Atlantic, which recently announced job cuts.
EasyJet, whose activity has been stalled for weeks, says that this way it intends to preserve its finances and adapt to the weaker air traffic for a long period.
