They do not want to be ripped off, but as long as all airlines are increasing ticket prices, I am confident we will retain our huge number of premium leisure customers.
It appears you may be relatively new to this industry. Having been in it for over 30 years I have witnessed this scenario repeatedly. I would not consider joining at the bottom of a seniority list or working my notice where redundancies are likely. However, we are not at that stage…yet. If you believe you will be safe at BA then I have a bridge to sell you.
