Read the whole agreement and I think you will see that the new amount is a guarantee this time not a replacement of our allowances like the last MTP offer.
Actually,
both the MTP and the minimum variable pay (plus top up) are guaranteed. The minimum variable pay just comprises the same allowances which were in the MTP, the real difference is in the top up. Either way, cabin crew have been offered what is in effect an increase in their basic salary, good for security, mortgage applications, etc.
I think that BA has to be commended for listening to concerns about cabin crew losing out to Mixed Fleet and coming up with these proposals. Unfortunately, I don't expect Unite to recommend the variable pay top up to their members.
