I agree, purly an accounting fiddle. Nothing but Funny Money.
I also failed to notice anywhere in the article where it said the money would be coming to little ole' me? Did I miss something or did FB make the whole thing up?
I would have thought that the company will switch the 60M it thinks it might be saving from redundancies and put it into the, what if war breaks out pot, or the what if we don't reach a pay agreemnt and things turn nasty account. It sure as hell will not be going into my current account.
Another point, if BA has 53000 workers, 3000 of which are pilots, 13000 crew, where do you get 50000 managers form? The last I remember it figure was something like 4000 max.
