How can they possibly hope to convince anyone that one less cabin crew may result in health issues when the same airline operates with less crew just 40 miles down the road without any known health problems.
I beleive this latest strike ballot threat is wishful thinking by a minority of the cabin crew because they do not wish to acknowledge there was not a victory in the court yesteday.
Thankfully the majority of cc are level headed sensible thinking employees who take pride in their duties and wish to retain their jobs and will not be lead to the dole queue by those who cannot accept that Bassa does not run the airline. It matters not whether one like or dislikes the management or what they do.
Retaining a well paid job during these difficult times is more important. Perhaps some of the Bassa 100% brigade do not know anyone who has lost their job in the last year or so and the hardship that goes with that for them and their family.
There are lots of unemployed experienced cabin crew out there who would love to strap themselves into a cabin crew seat on a BA aircraft, so many airline have gone bankrupt in the last year. I bet some of the employed ones would also like to do the same.
We will not be cancelling our Christmas flights with BA.
