New LGW fleet will be in the NSP. It also has seperate negotiating rights outside the main body (LHR, MAN, GLA).
Transfer agreement will be renegotiated at a later stage, however the general view from both sides is that a fairer more favourable transfer arrangment will be reached in the future for it's LGW crew involving moving fleets and keeping rank, seniority, pay.
However negotiations promise to be involved, emotive, and lengthy, so don't expect any resolution soon as they haven't even started. Negotiations are still being fianlised with the new LGW fleet and that has to be sorted first.
Being in the NSP is a BIG START and hopefully the shape of things to come - basically....LGW crew have a voice and it will be listened to, if people like it or not now.
New crew compliments 11 - 10 depending on A/C config will be trialled in first month.
CSD roll will be replaced by Cabin Manager who will now take an active role in the service, with less paperwork. The new role will be current EFLGW purser pay plus an additional non-pensionable basic salary increase.
No new routes planned.
Training will start in Aug in seniortiy order (however there may be reasons form time to time some crew may trained out of seniority order). However new entrants starting in AUG may end up being trained on 777 imeadiately.
New scheduling agreement is still very good compared to other UK LH carriers.
Union members will be balloted in coming weeks on should the new LGW fleet agreement should be accepted.
Hope that answers a few more questions.
