But - there is a lot of talk of BA recruiting within the next 12 months. Is this simply a rumour that has got out of hand, or is there some truth to it?
As someone who was recently made redundant, I look at BA and think it's the only airline in the UK that a) hasn't made anyone redundant, despite the financial issues both the UK and the airline are having and b) isn't employing anyone on either pay to fly, reduced term, summer only or any other stupid contract.
Can you name any other large airline, with respectable terms and conditions and job security in the UK that fits that description?
