I see from another 'crewforum' that Bassa members are complaining that they were brought home after just one night at the diversion, rather than 2MBTs as per their agreement.
One crewmember who says that's what they wanted to do, and didn't feel the need for 2 nights is being lectured that if they don't take those 2 nights in every case, then BA will start planning LAs, SFOs, JNBs etc with only one night stop!
The 2 situations are so clearly different - disruption costs the company massively in cash and customer satisfaction terms, so the priority for us all is to resurrect the operation asap. The priority is not the employee!!!
That's why the pilots, who have very similar industrial agreements take min rest then fly. And without the fear that the company would use such exceptional circumstances as a precedent to impose changes on our agreement. We still have 2 nights in LA and SFO!
Cabin crew need to start taking charge of their own destiny, establish from the top (WW) that no alleviation during disruption would be used to justify changes to planned schedules, then tell Bassa that's what they want to do.
They need to behave and be treated as adults, not children.
