Roll on the strike.
When I was checking in for a BA short-haul flight some time ago I heard this comment from a fellow passenger in the queue: "BA short-haul is now just EasyJet where the pilots wear caps".
Not quite true as BA sell you "
M&S sandwiches", but then EasyJet have a bigger range of UK airports to fly from. As a passenger in 'the regions' I see no need to use BA short-haul. A Dutch airline does quite well for me
and they give me a free sandwich and drink.
You guys are probably correct, why bother about public opinion.
