The figure of 13,500 cabin crew that I have been using is evidently unreliable, since it relates to December 2009
I also see that
http://bapress.custhelp.com no longer exists - which diminishes the trustworthness of this source of information.
_ So my question is how many BA cabin crew qualify for membership of BASSA?
All that we can be sure of is that in Dec 2010 - Jan 2011 Unite balloted 10,200 cabin crew.
_ The often quoted figure of 2,500 for non-members is maybe nothing more than a plausible guess.
