I think that was me yesterday post 2116.

Looking at "Plodding Alongs" list of rules and regs for eurofleet it occurs to me that a decent negotiating team could actually negotiate a pay rise as well as meeting the required cost reductions in exchange for some modern working practices.

New agreements may mean less time for lunch at LHR but you get home earlier, or you do more sectors more efficiently so you have an extra day off. I like many others would, I am sure, rather work harder on the days I came to work in exchange for less days at work. This would obviously suit commuters. How do CC justify only flying 66% of the hours of the pilots?
It seened a win win for BA and CC but obviously a lose for BASSA
