Falcon,
Your damn right about these BA boys, Public relations dept. Don't worry about being in Nw Zealand stopping you watching the programme. By the wonders of the WWW Channel 4 let you catchup on all your favorite programmes.
You'll be able to see it here channel4.com - watch online after it airs live. Also there is usually some very nice chap that loads it onto Youtube. Just search youtube for 'the trouble with british airways' should bring you up any offerings.
Well I think my stalker Carnage Matey! has gone to sleep, he's got an early start down at BA HQ

Blue ray, had to respond to that one - you don't have early starts at "BA HQ" you wander in at 1000 for a latte then read your emails until lunch etc
BTW, Carnage Matey is a BA pilot, as I am. But you will no doubt deny that.
The tv programme you prattle about has created zilch interest in the media.
Investors now describe BA stock as a solid buy, why not dip your toe in?

Overstress I guess that's why they're dropping as you're typing, down 6% at £1.21 (15.oct.08) You shouldn't trust those city slickers, look at the mess they've already made of the world economy. And your going to trust them on a punt with BA.
No i'd rather save my pennies for a more realistic punt, like the 100/1 offer at PADDY power for BA to cease trading. (merged/taken over)
I understand from the latest Willie Walsh HQ meeting that BA are losing £2 million everyday. Now at that rate of drainage,somethings going to give, that's a dead cert.
Now add that to the current possible liability of $2 billion for the cargo price fixing, which you've admitted. Plus the £2 billion for your pension deficit (sure to have widened with the current city falls) and I'm sure you start to see, things ain't all rosy down at British Airways.
Now one tip you should always remember, don't put all your eggs in one basket, working for and investing in your company is generally a no no. When or if it all goes terribly wrong, at least you won't also have a fist full of worthless junk bonds.

Best ever performance by BA
BA records best ever punctuality performance
British Airways produced the best daily punctuality performance in the history of the airline on Tuesday.
Head of operational planning and control, Andy Lord, said: “These figures – which build on our exceptional performance this summer – are fantastic and something of which we can all be very proud.
“This level of performance is a huge boost to us prior to next week’s final move of flights into T5. What’s more, it is being noticed by both our customers and competitors alike.”

BlueRay, you really should learn to read. In numerous articles about BA they state that revenue, not profit, is down by £2 million per day. You really should read articles properly and thoroughly (I also refer you to your posting on the easyJet Base Captains thread) before posting your rubbish.

BA
this is my first post and doesnt really add anything to your arguments, but i'd just like to say i was booked on Zoom gla/yvr on 28 aug, that went pear shaped and i eventually managed to re-book with BA. gla/lhr/sea on 30 aug, although i didnt like t5{shopping mall imho} the service was exceptional. onwards and upwards for BA.{AND I WORK FOR A COMPETITOR}.
