BA's Gatwick Based Cabin Crew
Remarks acknowledging the committed customer service offered by BA's Gatwick based cabin crew during the current round of IA do not surprise me.
Gatwich as a base for civil aviation has always punched above it weight. Having worked there since 1965 (initially with BUA when 3 cabin crew regularly produced a full hot breakfast on BAC 1-11 flights to Rotterdam) it demonstrates present day crews are still maintaining the "can do" attitude.
Having said that, I would guess ignoring the call to strike has more to do with the Union failure to properly represent its members at Gatwick during T&C negotiations and taxation issues over the last year or so.
Another Union "own goal".
