Im afraid some here saying, BA can afford it so why should I, over my dead body, not in my lifetime, go for another dept first. You are all amazingly naive!
Nobody wants to lose their jobs or take a pay cut. We all agree there.
Its about savings by increasing flexibility and reducing complexity. The losers will be CC with 'nice' monied rosters and CC who say 'its not in the agreement' etc.
Years of No No No will ensure a swift correction to CC agreements by introducing the new fleet. No one is forcing you to change over so just stay as you are! The money routes will go to new aircraft/routes and there is nothing you can do about it.
The profitability of BA is key for all our survival and everyone has to chip in. If you are not going to change fleets, why worry!!
Just wait a few years until you are in the minority having 'low money' trips and you move over.
Please keep saying to the realists, blah blah blah, or just go stick your head in the sand, or both............Good luck
Im not flight crew before the mud starts being slung by the clever ones
