I do not think it's going to happen for any of you.
I do not see the company in the same light as it once was.
The changing scene is not going to bode well for life time employment.
The idea of them being a top tier company will seem ludicrous in years to come.
What you thought of them is about to change.
What you once thought of them will never return.

I do not see them creating another low cost, low service company.
They are that already.
They already have another ultra low cost, ultra low pay company in Vuling/Level.

What I think will happen is BA City will expand to compete with Easy/Ryan/J2.
First at Stansted, then Gatwick with 320s/73s.
Soon enough it will encroach on Heathrow, first with little ERJ, then big ones.
Then come the baby 'buses', then the big B-s and big buses..
No one is safe.

Don't spend your money on anything.
Invest and save everything.
For no longer will you be able to work till 65.
You won't want to do it past 55.
All jobs will be short term contracts from now on.

Sorry for being so pessimistic, I'm just trying to be a realist.
