It is of course worse. Once removed from the Staff Travel map, not even the participating Interline airlines will be available. Many of us live where BA fears to tread, and rely on the local airlines to get to a BA station to pick up a service that we can use. But of course the Interline airlines staff will still be able to use BA !!

In a reply to me, Manager Staff Travel has admitted that they are going to look at Interline agreements, you'll lose those next.

All the retirees ask is that we continue to be eligible for what we worked for - and in many cases were promised before accepting Severance - contractual or not.

One cannot stop change, but the retrospective application of new rules to the most elderly pensioners who are least equipped to adapt to those changes, is just plain cruel. It will cost BA nothing to 'Grandfather' the concessions that we were granted on retirement - and the ID 90 fare will help towards the 'carbon tax ', if nothing else, and we are a diminishing group as well.


Watch out. It might be your pension next. Fight back now.
