The back-to-back payment (shoot me down) is £186.00.

This reflects a little of the oeprating efficiences gained by BA in rostering back-to-backs.

After an east coast US/Canada trip we will ALWAYS get 3 clear days off (plus arrival day). This is the same whether it is a night-stop (3 day trip) or a 5 or 6 day b2b. So the savings b2b's generate for BA are obvious. Although there are rumours that BA are debating their feasability.

Without b2b:

Day 1: LHR/JFK nightstop
Day 2: JFk/LHR
Day 3: Arrive LHR
Day 4: Off
Day 5: Off
Day 6: Off
Day 7: LHR/BOS nightstop
Day 8: BOS/LHR
Day 9: Arrive LHR
Day 10: Off
Day 11: Off
Day 12: Off
Day 13: Next duty............

With a b2b:

Day 1: LHR/JFK nightstop
Day 2: JFK/LHR
Day 3: Arrive LHR - Crew Hotel
Day 4: LHR/BOS night-stop
Day 5: BOS/LHR
Day 6: Arrive LHR
Day 7: Off
Day 8: Off
Day 9: Off
Day 10: Next duty.......
