Delusions
Blimey, what's it like to be in this BA bubble? To suggest the impact of this ballot is negligible and that people will still book with BA, shows a remarkable narrow mind in your loyalty to all things BA. And for BA to spin that those who didn't vote, somehow voted no to strike action baffles me.
I'm out with the London catchment area, so would need a flight to Heathrow or Gatwick for my onward journeys. Given what happened during the last strikes, it's extremely unlikely my short haul flight would leave. Why would I bother going to Heathrow with another airline and have the hassle of a transfer to get to T5 for a long haul flight that may or may not go? I go through Paris or Schiphol.
Nobody in my office is booking with BA right now.
And the stupid thing is? Walsh and BA have their permanent and structural changes to cabin crew working terms and conditions. He's brought in a cheap labour resource, paying minimal wages with crap working rights.
I can see why the current crew voted for a strike so emphatically.
