I think it is really important that you all realise that some of these posters are just trying to stir you all up.

During the recent snow disruption 40 long haul aircraft diverted as LHR had closed on Saturday 18th and the following day the airport remained closed to arriving aircraft. Flights did not return to LHR until Monday 20th. All the diverting aircraft had two local nights but this was due to the airport not accepting arriving flights until Monday and nothing to do with the disruption agreement.

I was stuck down route during this disruption and two long haul crew were staying in our hotel and they were all keen to get back to LHR as fast as possible. Most cabin crew hate the disruption agreement as it causes their future roster to be disrupted and the vast majority of crew DO care a lot about our customers. In fact many of the diverted pax were resident in the hotel with all the crew and they were very complimentary with the way BA was handling the situation.

Please take with a pinch of salt the posts by some of these BASSA supporters as they are designed to enrage you all and they are not a reflection of what the majority of crew feel or think.
