The 48hr rule after a diversion has been an outdated process for years, which from simply a crew point of view has gone against us, as many of us have families to get back to for example. You could divert to LGW, yet Bassa would insist that the crew stay in a hotel 30 miles from LHR for 2 days!!! Bonkers.
Lets not even talk about the problems it brings to BA from an operation point of view, or the promlems it leaves our customers. Bassa have known this for years. BUT, would they ever think to be proactive and go to BA and change it. NO WAY. The simple fact is, this would still be the same in 2020 and longer if Bassa were allowed to keep it. What hacks me off so much about Bassa, is that they don't even try to change something that would actually BENEFIT their members. No, just keep the status quo.
