I always remember when I joined BA several years ago, I was told that if a 747 flew with either a full cargo hold or a full First Class, anything else was profit. I guess flying with a full cargo hold and breaking even would make good business sense. Happy cargo customers and more BA planes flying overhead.

Anyway, does anyone know when a new strike has to be called by before the strike mandate runs out. Or, as a strike has already been called, does the mandate not run out. Any answers would be great.

Apologies. Just found the answer to my own question. For others info.


'Unite must give a week’s notice of any fresh action. In order to preserve its mandate the union also has to start a strike within 28 days of the last one, meaning that it would have to announce a walkout by April 20, unless British Airways agrees to extend the authority granted by the ballot.'
