I'm in India. We have 4 icc's and 4 regular crew on a - full - 777.
All flts are operating min crew.
BA are being very cautious by not allocating more crew than necessary, and by standing down spare crew for use later if needed.
We had a choice of 6 regular crew and 2 vols at briefing (plus the 4 icc crew).
Don't know what the spare 4 crew ended up doing.
I spoke to 2 general managers and they are very confident that the strike is effectively over; more and more crew are reporting. ( above the company's most optimistic targets).
By the end of the strike the remaining strikers will no longer be req'd.
Very funny that the militants are mocking the advert for temps, not actually realising it is temp cabin crew that are being recruited.
TO REPLACE THEM!!!!!!!
