Pistonprop....
I'm a fare paying BA passenger and BA cc have my full support. In their quest to cut costs and increase profits, what these modern day moronic CEOs like WW don't grasp anymore is that staff such as cc are the front line. It is they that ultimately contribute to increased and repeat custom. Personally I would regard my cc as my entire PR department and do whatever I could to MOTIVATE them!
So do you want low fares that compete with other operators or do you want cabin crew paid at a rate around 1.6x the industry rate.....?
Perhaps we should put it to a consumer vote?
Oh.... and with the current sickness policy in the company I think we can look forward to the instant dismissal of anyone that reports sick on a notified day of industrial action.
