What are you receiving from your airline as a xmas present?

[airbabe]

I'd like to know what peoples employers are getting them for their xmas present, have heard that BA cabin crew are receiving 1 weeks pay extra as a xmas bonus.

What are you getting???

[G-OOFY]

£16 of Tesco voucher's

I kidd you not!

[fantum farter]

Airbabe were you around when we got out of date smarties a few years back ?
How to really motivate you crew- not

PFFFFFFSSSSST !!!

[exeng]

As far as I know everybody at BA gets an extra weeks pay, it's like 'part of the deal'.

A request to work an extra shift for no pay.

[Fastpants]

exeng: That's true except for FOs at EOG with less than 2 yrs on the line....officially. Last year payments were made to FO's by accident. Those of us who have joined in the last 12 months were to get nothing this year, until thankfully, Monica just this week organised the 'bonus' to go on our January payslips. This is I believe in *anticipation* of a successful outcome in negotiations to achieve parity. I hope the result is successful...I don't see why FO's at EOG should be treated differently to all the other pilots in the company!

[Boss Raptor]

Nothing but then my big boss is a Muslim, it's a bit of a problem as we have both Islamic and Christian staff...get a years' salary at the end of year three with the company which sort of makes up for it!

[Old King Coal]

Many moons ago, when I used to work for Air Europe, they used to give every member of staff a fresh turkey (of some size too) plus two bottles of spirit (either Scotch of Vodka) - my present employers give us sweet FA - bah humbug !

Stop press.... (hence the edit).... just found out that we're all to receive a cheque for £100 - so I take it all back - bah humbug

Don't suppose it was when Errol Cossey was there was it Old King Coal??? He did the same kind of thing at Air2 and Flying Colours. Used to get a bottle of champagne with it as well, which is all we're expecting this year.

[Smellster]

G-OOFY £16 of Tesco vouchers? Good old BAC!!

We got nothing apart from a cracking Xmas do with a lovely free bar and a hotel room to crash in, literally.

[Petergozinya]

Usairways, 3lb. block of cheese.

[Dan Dare]

[BJBATMAN]

We get to pay a $10 cover charge just to get into the company X-mas party. Don't forget your credit card because once you get in you have to still buy your own drinks.

I stand corrected we got a very nice unexpected amount of Cash!!!

[MileHi]

A two day layover......

[Check-in]

Dinner, overnight and breakfast allowance at 1996 rates in an exotic tropical location in the middle of the cyclone season. But when they find that everything was shut on Xmas day they will want the brekkie allowance back, as I obviously couldn't spend it....

[trackone]

Two lovely pens, so you have the option which one to use to sign your resignation ( of course if we don't go TU before)

[Xenia]

This year we got a Mark&Spencer voucher.... http://www.pprune.org/ubb/NonCGI/tongue.gif
Which I already spent in...4 pairs of medium support tights :rolleyes: http://www.pprune.org/ubb/NonCGI/eek.gif :rolleyes:

[Son Of Piltdown]

Midland:-

Nothing.

[Sariah Zub]

I thought we weren't going to get anything at first. But the company delivered a fantastic goodwill gesture and kindly provided an all expenses paid dinner at a restaurant of personal choice, with wine etc, for all crew down route on Christmas day.

Well done BMed!!

[Tropical Update]

All pilots got their resignation letter as of dec 31st, how about that as a X-mas gift?
Happy landings

[guppie]

That is bad, we just did't get anything. Appearently it could be worse.

[CONES R US]

I got exactly the same as the last 3 years - knack all apart from a shift pattern to let me work Xmas AND New Year! CHEERS.

------------------
NO FAULT FOUND

[Canuck_AV8R]

I feel kind of bad but I was quite happy with what I got from my employer, even though we received it a little early (mid Nov).

We received profit sharing cheques for between 2 and 3 months salary (before tax) depending on time of service. Needless both Mrs. Canuck and I were quite pleased.

At Christmas we received a card with a pop out tree ornament, quite functional really.

Cheers
Canuck
