Once again , another pathetic BA cabin crew bashing exercise

Give it a break - most - in fact 65% of BA cabin crew are on the new contract, that means they start on £8,500 and are capped at £13,000 for the rest of their career .

Does that level of salary sound appealing to you - or is it worth getting so het up about - i don't think so.

Yes,there are a few older crew around who worked their way up the ranks or payscales - we've all signed a contract at some point in our lives.
In case you are unaware ,BA has been around for a very long time.
We were once offered a 'career' and so we've worked damned hard to make it what it is today.
84% customers v satisfied is not a bad rating,and is consistent.

I think you'll find that 90% of all the porsches,bmw's and jaguars that litter the crew car park are owned by pilots... the battered old fiestas and mondeos belong to the cabin crew...

Why don't you just give it up , or if you really want to justify your point , write down here what a B744 captains final salary is ,and we can all make an informed decision...

This continual bashing on a 'professionals' website is tiresome and disturbing to say the least.


In fact there is a current thread on the BASSA website about how much hate is directed towards BA cabin crew on PPrune, and how disconcerting/alarming we collectively find it ........

Ironically ,nothing negative has been written about pilots on the BASSA site for months ,and months - so really , where do we all stand when it comes to digninfied remarks etc... there is a whole lot of very bad feeling on here....
