Hi Rainbow - thanks for the support! Yes, I agree there are alot of like minded people out there. Unfortunately it is the voice of BASSA that gets heard above it all.

DA DOG - sorry I was probably a bit tetchy!! One thing we all have in common is that we are ALL worried about the state of our company and OUR JOBS (Pilots, Cabin crew, ground staff etc.). It makes things very tense! But there is a lot of "take it or be made redundant" being bandied about (onboard as well) and that is quite upsetting too. We all seem to get tarred with the BASSA broom!

So what do the likes of Rainbow. myself and many, many others do? We are not getting any information from either side as to what is happening. Glamgirl's suggestion of emailing what T&Cs you would forego could be beneficial, but is that going to be enough for WW? Will UNITE listen?

It has been suggested that a RE-NEWED fleet and not a NEW fleet is the way forward - but is that what is being discussed? Many of us would be more than happy with that.

How can we influence UNITE when it just seems to be happening around us? The two sides have historically always been at loggerheads, and because of that, now seem unable to see the woods for the trees. The only losers will be us the employees.
