Could somebody explain something to me? I was asked at the CRC to remove my BASSA lanyard because it's not uniform standard and hence not allowed. One feet away from where I was standing, there were three pilots (thank you for staring) wearing their BALPA lanyards and nobody asked them to remove theirs. Is it contradictory or is BA afraid that others will see the support BASSA have?
Miss M,
It has always been my understanding that BASSA lanyards can be worn if turned to reflect the word BASSA inwards. I certainly have never asked my crew to remove them but to wear them as above. The difference with BALPA lanyards is that our Flight Crew have different uniform standards to us. I don't think for a minute that BA are afraid of the diminishing support BASSA have.
