Vast Majority

Is the BA PR dept stuck for suitable vocabulary? With the vast majority of flights going (when we know thats not the case) and now in a press association release, BA spokesperson stating;

'But a BA spokeswoman said it "can't say 100%" all the bags will be sorted in a week, but "the vast majority" would be.'
Clearly this has not been lost on the hacks at the press association who have emphasised the repetative use of VAST. Stickyb I agree with you that this is intended to be misleading for the consumer and commend your dedicate and detailed research into the matter.

As for VanHorck, what are you going on about? Whilst I am nearly in the ready to retire region, I am far from retired. And when have you ever heard of an aircraft engineer with their own office??? Dingy crewroom yes, plush office no.
