...they've handed the management their heads on a plate.

The state of frustration on a WORLD-WIDE LEVEL, with self-serving management whose sole motivation is THEIR OWN "performance BONUS" - at the cost of ALL other staff - is being demonstrated by British Airways employees now.

Yes, we can all be replaced - and isn't THAT a grand threat/promise that so called "management" love to use.

Airlines are a "service industry" - not an ESSENTIAL service.
The fight is with the greedy, self-serving, upper level management who are destroying not only personal lives, but entire airlines to line their own nests.

The level of frustration at seeing one's long established place of employment destroyed by the GREED of just a few men/women in the upper level management ranks is not peculiar to B.A.
"Management" have become the waterlillies of airlines - multiplying at ever increasing rates, without ADDING productivity, but rather TAKING, whenever possible.

It's time to put an end to "performance bonuses" for management.
Pay them a flat salary, and like every other employee, if they underperform, SACK 'EM!!
There are plenty more with the same qualififcations standing in line, waiting for THEIR turn.
