Nobody in the airline industry appears to have seen Covid-19 coming but surely after last years threats of Industrial Action, the prospect of retaliation by management was only to be expected. The only question would have been what situation would offer BA management the opportuntiy to turn the tables on what it has always perceived to be overpaid and underworked aircrew. Friends who work for BA or are now retired tell me that the Company has been on a crusade for decades to reduce terms and conditions that dated back to very different times - is this a fair summation ?
