It's time to sit this one out and wait to see what actually happens, especially as a strike will not prevent a certain degree of changes happening anyway! I see a lot of shortsightedness on this forum and am amazed at the number of flight crews who cannot see the changing face of air travel;I'm sorry to burst your bubble world. In a recent meeting the overall consensus was that the flight and cabin crew pay and productivity really needs to be monitored - and no, crews don't like the thought of working harder for their allowances.
WW has major plans for BA ( I work "inside") - much to the disdain of the workers - and it means middle management cuts and flight/cabin crews facing up to slow, but needed pay and conditions restructuring.Pay itself will not mean a crew member having a change in their basic, for example, but it will mean certain generous "extras" will be phased out.
As we all know the LGW plan is Chapter 1, but Chapter 2 is only a few pages away.
The underlining issue that all BA staff should not lose sight of the company's worringly poor (actually, out of control) pension deficit and all hands are needed to rectify it for the company's future success.
