On arrival to CRC early this morning, I was surprised to see three crew members who I had not expected to see working during the strike at all. The first was a CSD who was a 'hard core BASSA member who was adamant about striking.
The second was a colleague who I had flown with several times in the past who had also voted yes but decided to work instead.
The third crew member shocked me as he had been on the pickets throughout the strikes but decided 'he'd had enough of BASSA' which are his exact words. He also mentioned about being given a hard time by the strikers.

The operation is definitely improving because on my return from my nightstop from a destination in Europe tomorrow, I will be operating a link service or doing what is known as a two day four sector trip. This is a good sign of a normal operation especially when trips have started to be linked making better use of available resources.

I'm BA cabin crew who's proud to cross the picket line.
