GSS are not a subsidery (sic) of BA. They are contracted to fly BAWC's freight. If BAWC (ie BA) make a profit from that arrangement: Great!

If GSS also make a profit: Great! Presumably they will reward THEIR employees accordingly.

I very much doubt the "paying public" either know or care what your remuneration is.

And as far as pax; "thinking they are flying BA and they are!!" If you have experienced the real BA shorthaul product, particularly out of LHR, you will know that the experience of flying from the regions really isn't very similar.

Which is a shame, because it used to be identical.

Were you referring to just the "former BAR" cabin crew receiving a bonus? Can you explain why they shouldn't?

If at some future date, BACX were to actually make a profit, and BA did not, would you expect the 60,000 mainline employees to share in any BACX bonus?
