Post 3760.

Fly73 discussed the amount of crew on 2hr standby, between 30 and 40 plus VCCs. They imply that the strike is waning and BA is maintaining its reduced operation.

However, they also state that the reason for their own extended standby duty was due to their flight being cancelled, and that the 30-40 other crew also had flights cancelled.

With so many crew and VCCs hanging about, for days, why are additional flights not being reinstated and the battle to break the strike accelerated.

Or does this reflect that the strike isn't going entirely BAs way with additional flights having to be cancelled.
