Obviously you don't understand the complexities of travel & many peoples itineraries. As I said I may be lucky & miss the BA strike should it go ahead unlike many other poor souls who have to live with the uncertainty of having their travel arrangements disrupted, isn't travel stressful enough without that!. Many pax like me have complex itineraries, where if we miss connections it screws up our plans major time down the line, as it is I have a little leeway but not very much.
Why don't you airline staff grow up, as for kicking up tantrums airline staff seem to be experrts at that at innocent pax's expense. Everyone knows airlines reputations for not paying many of its less specialised staff well, why does it come as a surprise to you that this hasn't changed, why did you join an airline in the first place? I knew it, I didn't, I just accepted it & went on to a career that paid far better with far better conditions! You make your bed, you lie in it.
Would you lot grow up. When I pay for & book something I expect a decent product & service, is that too much to expect, if I don't get it I complain, what's wrong with that? Most companies are falling over themselves to please & not alienate the customer but I ask you, all three airlines I'm flying with are voting on strike action, there's serious unrest going on here & a total lack of concern it appears for the inconvenience the airlines are causing their customers if they matter at all. If you ask me we seem to be just pawns in the whole game. If you guys think that I'm going to accept a shoddy service & be made to suffer for something that I've never done lying down, you're very much mistaken. Most "grown up" people think of the consequences of their actions on other people before they act, seems alot of airline staff are like overgrown children who only think of themselves.
