Betty Girl - I don't think BA want to alienate the 50% of cabin crew that did back them and I think you, and others like you, are the only reason that a 90 day notice hasn't been issued.
I agree entirely. I think from the outset there has been a recognition by BA that it will have to pick up the pieces of this and all crew (whether strikers or not) will have to move on. Hence why it has been so patient in trying to secure an agreed negotiated settlement.

BA could have easily expedited a resolution to this well over 12 months ago, but such a resolution would probably have had a longer term impact on crew, far greater than the strikes (however difficult things may be at the moment).
