My thoughts go out to the LGW groundstaff working for BA who will lose their jobs over this move, as well as the 777 migration to LHR. They have always tried to get me on aircraft when incidents/accidents have occurred in a most professional and timely manner.
So, to the ticket desk, flight monitoring unit, check-in, dispatchers, flight connections desk and all "customer facing" and backroom staff that have helped, thank you. I could not have done the 200+ sectors a year as a passenger and done my job without you.
To the GB cabin crew, you know that you have the best reputation for service amongst the frequent flyers for short haul off the UK. I wish you all well, to those of you who stay, good luck and to the others, please remember that the nearest exit may be behind you.
