The joys of a proper airline
A "proper" airline would keep the promises that they make to you on joining.

BA have just kicked a lot of us "oldies" out of the promise of access to rebate travel for the duration of our retirement, a bunch long retired, slowly dying off so that we will soon be out of their hair altogether, with pensions earned on salaries set many moons ago, not present day rates, so travel costs are now very significant as a result and beyond the reach of many.

( Please don't tell me that Staff Travel in retirement was always only "concessional" not "contractual", we know that, but "promises" mean nothing to them.

Be careful what you wish for. The present BA Management are a bunch of ......... ( you fill in the blanks) BOAC ( used) To Take Good Care Of You. Not any more.
