So working for a big company should equate to a larger salary??? Best go work for Microsoft then....I would equate a pilots responsibilty to being far higher than a member of CC and as such so should their pay, no matter what the airline.....
NO disrespect to CC intended you do an excellent job !!!

If anyone is unaware of the strength of feeling in BA towards managements drive to destroy our pension, then they should have a look at the above link.
After of course that they have read everything on PPrune!

I think BA CC deserve more money, especially allowances because the cost of living in the U.K is spiraling out of control and many have to commute long distances to get to their base. Oh yes, the overseas allowances are becoming less attractive, has anyone actually tried to have proper meals in the hotel? And now there's AMP to worry about.
Here's to a prosperous New Year to BA CC ....they deserve it for the excellent service they give our passengers.

These BA related topics seem to go around in circles. Let's just summarise, accept the facts and leave BA alone.
It needs to be accepted as fact no 1 that BA is an important feature of aviation due its heritage, network and passenger numbers.
It is also fact that it is a management heavy business and that its flight crews (pilots/cabin staff) are probably (currently) some of the most overpaid group of employees - which is why other airline employees shown their annoyance on forums like these. While well remunerated it is also fact that BA employees claim to work for a profitable airline, but they seem to forget their company has an out-of-control 1 billion pound + pension deficit!
Another fact is BA has always offered mediocre customer service compared to other airlines, but people use them as they are an established and comfortable choice for passengers.
These all facts and people should just accept them rather than these forums going round in circles!

Jerry.................... history shows you write cr@p at every available moment. FD and CC overpaid and our poor peers underpaid
I dunno lets look at tuggies £28K plus overtime, and they are never there when you want one, lets compare that to some of the other "operators"` at LHR and LGW where you start on 16K and err finish on 16K. Maybe our dedicated loaders might want to work for the miniumum wage. Or lets look at the real noose around our necks and thats the teirs upon tiers of managment who bleed this company dry
Still at least WW is starting at the right place, lets hope you jerry might be in those cuts
Merry Xmas

Thats why the pilots got their union to benchmark most major airlines in Europe and the UK to objectively verify who is paid what. Strangely enough, seems BA pilots are very good vale for money. But I wouldn't expect a non-BA employee to believe the truth.
