As I started reading an online article about Caribbean Airline’s (CAL’s) plans to retrench between 95 and 115 pilots – almost 46 per cent of their crew – I was surprised to feel that rising inner tide that becomes a lump in the throat, then moves into tears. I sat in front of my laptop weeping.

When heading off to Cambridge to do my masters in my early twenties, that was the airline that transported me, safe and sound, to London. The general camaraderie and warmth of the smiling flight crew brought familiarity to the opening leg of a big new adventure, akin to the feeling of being dropped off to school safely by loving parents.
