If some are dismissing the Travel payment because it would penalise them as 'hard workers' there must be an equal and opposite number of crew who should have got their calculators out and realised that they were quids in on that offer. The message coming from BASSA is that BA are not to be trusted on this. That simply does not make sense!

Why have BASSA not countered with a statement like,
"When we totalled up the entire allowance payments to all crew, we calculated that the Travel Payment system 'short changed' us by XX%"

That would have meant that crew could vote purely as an informed choice. Instead BASSA have shown us their petulant inability to do some serious number crunching for the benefit of their membership. Lead them to armageddon with their fingers shoved firmly in their ears!
