Out of those 430 how many had been with the company for many many years so their redundancy offer was nice and high rather than the minimum offered, I know of one who was seriously thinking of accepting the last time I asked.
What were the terms offered to the Captains and senior crew? I would be willing to guess they would be very similar to their old contracts simply because they were needed for their vital navigation qualifications and experience in the job.
