Thanks

Just arrived in SFO on BA285 staffed by 12 in the cabin which included one engineer and an office based volunteer.

Service was fantastic as was the spirit of the whole cabin crew team. They seemed to cope well despite being 2 down and with a pretty full flight.

Flight left about 20 mins late but made up time en-route.

Terminal 5 seemed pretty normal for a Sunday and I only noticed about 3 wet leases in the 4 hours I was in the terminal.

I thanked as many of the crew as I could personally for sticking to their principles and refusing to be bullied into wholly inappropriate strike action. The phrase "wrong fight wrong time" comes very much to mind.

It was evident to day that the whole BA team were working very hard to get flights away and mostly seemed to be succeeding. The UNITE action has wholly failed to bring the airline to anything near a standstill.
