For those in the pool (and prospective poolers) planning on travelling to/from LHR/LGW by using staff travel
... you might need to know that we have found out from the union overnight that BA are going to be quite proactive from now on in checking how and when people have travelled into base prior to work - they have just announced a two month audit.. This to ensure crewmembers comply with the latest rules BA have come up regarding personal travel into base and subsequent rest at base prior to a duty. At the moment it seems BA are only going to look at those who fly in using Standby tickets or the discounted commercial tickets available to staff.
I’m sure for the vast majority here that won’t be a deal breaker but be careful about planning a lifestyle based on
flying into base the same day as report, or at the very least owning up to doing the same...that might cause problems
