It seems to me this whole strike issue has lost any relevance. I have four long haul segments booked in June and am not at all concerned, is anyone? The current ballot will certainly return an overwhelming percentage in favor of IA. Red Len may want to have a strike as it may coordinate with some of his other actions but will in no way further the cause of BA CC. Undoubtedly IA will cause BA some financial distress but should not impact the operation from the pax point of view to a great extent. What is in it for striking CC? I assume BA will not threaten termination for strikers but will at least do the following: loss of wages until next rostering, no bonus for 2011 ( already stated), loss of staff travel forever. If my perspective and assumptions are incorrect please correct me. If, however, my thoughts are correct what CC in their right mind would actually strike?
