320+ seat, 2 Class A/C operating out of the U.K on 10+ hour sectors with 2 pilots and 10 CC. No bunks, no rest areas. Pilots stay in the seats, CC hope to get 20 minutes rest on a bar box. This company has been operating for over 40 years in the U.K and has made a profit every year it has existed. This year maybe not? Aircrew notice out in last couple of weeks saying we have to operate 1 CC down on certain sectors. Sharp intake of breath, some mutterings, then OK lets try and give the passengers the service we can. I think a reality check needs to be undertaken by a few dreamers in BA who also appear to be agitators. I suspect and hope that the silent majority will see the light and commonsense will prevail. Nobody should ever want to see fellow crew out of a job unless they are incredibly self-centered and vindictive people. To wish your own colleagues out of their jobs is totally beyond belief.
