That perk alone must cost BA millions
.

perk ? as in Company Car etc ? Airline staff are no different to many other companies who offer rebate facilities of some sort or another to their employees, but the Green Eyed Monster often conveniently forgets that !

see below ........

understood that Staff Travel was on a 'space available' basis - essentially the same as Standby. On that basis there's no real cost penalty to BA as such [BA staff use unsold seats].
Correct
Staff travel is one such issue. However, to "give it back" would deeply offend the non-striking staff. How will this be resolved?
and deeply offend the older pensioners who have been so recently and unceremoniously kicked out of Staff Travel access - for no fault of their own !
