I am still shocked at how the crew community fail to see how the aviation working world has changed and that things will get even tougher for them in order for their airline to stay afloat.
Everyone seems to be under the impression that BA is inches away from bankruptcy. It isn't. I would venture that we're in rude health considering the unfair competition we have to put up with from state subsidised dinosaurs on each side of the Atlantic (I count Ch.11 as an unfair state subsidy). Wait for the next set of figures. Survival of the fittest applies as much to business as to life and BA is further up the pile than most, if not all.
