Cabin Crew are not the only ones who work at BA - there are lots of others too and without all parts of the team, nothing would get off the ground.
The entire workforce of BA is under the gun and having to face changes to their working practices. Although I have sympathy for some of the old practices for crew being dismantled, I really wish they'd see the bigger picture.
If BA has a strike now, there's a very strong possibility the company will fold and thousands of us will be without work. Fine if you're a 25 year old crew member who can get another job.
Try being on the maturer side where work is IMPOSSIBLE to come by.
I work for BA and want to keep the job I enjoy. I'm on a measley salary but I'd rather have that than nothing at all.
Time for crew (and anyone else who thinks a strike is the answer) to stop being so selfish. If you continue that way I hope you won't be complaining when you're earning £5 an hour filling shelves at the local supermarket - you don't get allowances for that.
