Recruitment into Heathrow Worldwide
BA do recruit into longhaul but only into LGW longhaul. Plans were mooted before this current big recruitment drive to take new entrants onto LHR WW, this was met with little enthusiasm by our unions. Once the company realised the strength of feeling in the crew community they decided that it was not worth upsetting so many people by ignoring the transfer lists in place. They comitted to only taking new entrants onto Heathrow Eurofleet, Gatwick Eurofleet or Gatwick Worldwide.
