The idea that BACX could take over the running of BA LGW really doesn't stand up to scrutiny. We've already seen that BACX management couldn't organise a p up in a brewery and they certainly don't have a track record of running a sucessful low cost operation, so it can't be the management they're after. Perhaps they want to lower the cabin crew costs? Well the LGW crew are actually fairly poorly paid (no massive LHR allowances) and are comparable to the rates at Easy. So no big savings there. Maybe they want to make the pilots cheaper? Well they won't be able to replace them all with CX pilots and the BA pilots won't sign up to a pay cut to work for CX so no savings there either. That just leaves the ground staff, and I've no reason to believe BACX will be any more succesful with the militant unions than BA were. So. ultimately,what would be the point of such a move?
