I’ve been at the wrong end of LIFO before, so have many other people. Now these same people are being told it should be names out of a hat instead? Utter cobblers I’m afraid. Everyone joined BA knowing it was seniority driven and for what it’s worth if BA were to chop 1130 off the bottom of the MSL this time it’d be my turn again unfortunately but I still wouldn’t argue against LIFO on principle, for the simple reason that it’s completely transparent. Nothing about this situation is fair for anybody. How could anybody in BA have expected last year with the company recording multi billion profits again that just months later they’d be facing a trip to the dole office? Comments about choosing to be on the wrong fleet are ridiculous, nobody could or should have planned for this. My personal view is anyone who escapes this round will only be receiving a stay of execution anyway. There’s clearly a lot more pain down the road.
