To all Bassa members.
This is a plea from a fellow crew member.
PLEASE PLEASE read the offer for yourself and realise how fair it is now and was back in the summer when it was first offered.
We have not had to give up anything except the long range diversion of two nights, which many crew did not like anyway.
On long haul you keep the long range agreement, double nights off, MBTs triggered, overtime etc. etc.
On Eurofleet we keep the Cat turnarounds, 18 hours rest on request after 12.30 day and finish times on last day etc.
All these things might have been changed but have not. What you have got is a guarantee that you will get a top up if you don't achieve 'the average' in variable allowances. Basically it is and always was a great offer.
PLEASE PLEASE look at the big picture and realise that Staff Travel cannot be fully returned now because it would make Willie Walsh look like an idiot but will be in the future.
Please vote to accept this for all our sakes because if you cause BA to loose more money he will just come back with a worse offer!!!!!!!!!!!
