Just so that you don't have to work it out that comes to:
£2200 for a CSD
£1600 for a junior crew member
That is on top of the normal allowances and back to back payments. Probably looking at somewhere in the region of £3800 for a CSD for 5 days work on top of basic salary.
Apart from anything else these payments are probably illegal as they are "allowances", only 18% are taxed. This is because allowances are used to pay for food etc when abroad and that was the rate agreed by the IR. However BA are now using this "allowance payment" as a tax free form of bonus payment which is totally against UK tax law. It's time the IR looked closely at this abuse of the system.
To say the other groups within BA are cross is the worlds biggest understatement.
In the past sickness amongst cabin crew was so high on some of the less popular routes that they now get a "Destination" payment to fly these routes. This comes to a couple of hundred pounds just because they actually turn up to do rostered work. The pilots who have never had a tenth of the sickness of cabin crew of course don't get these payments!
Also of interest is the fact that the LHR transport drivers are (this is rumour only) being paid £150 for each time they actually show up for rostered work during the week that "Flight Switch" takes place.
Talk amongst flight crew is that they will have to use industrial action to force the company to stop these types of payments. If that means the company ceases to exist then that it will only have brought forward the enevitable demise of BA.
Whichever company replaces it will probably make billions in profit.
It's time that Mike Street was made to resign.
