The 5/3 discussions have been taking place for some time now.
6 months ago the company said no no no no! The guy responsible for that response is no longer with us!
Now. with new rostering management in place, they are listening and examining, with Council reps, how it might be implemented.
The forced introduction of the rolling week (instead of Sun-Sun) and the forced implementation of the EU working time directives in Dec make 5/3 even more realistic than before.
How many PC members have been promoted in the last 6 months - none that I know of? What's that got to do with anything?
So you didn't get your leave - what about the other 875 pilots? Are you suggesting that no-one did?
Which other airlines in profit give 'OK rostering'? BA rosters are good but the airline is a few £bn in debt.
Have you any idea at all what has been going on about crew food, particularly in the last 6 weeks? Are you aware that the new crew food manager was appointed last week to deal with the current situation following considerable pressure from the Balpa Crew food rep?
Are you aware of the efforts he went to get the previous crew food manager to get up and actually do something rather than avoiding meetings at all cost?
No, you don't seem to be aware of that at all.
If you are a member of Balpa you will be aware of all these things and more.
If you are not, you obviously don't really care what happens and are happy to leave it to others to sort out whilst you sit on the sidelines and whinge about things.
