Personalising the debate won't change things. Any other CEO would be doing what Willie is now. It's not all about his personal enrichment.

Market rate diff of about £20k per CC and the company has 15K of CC in a stafff of about 40K, means the CC will be taking a big hit this time around, shame the CC unions did'nt follow BALPA lead as they did when the pensions were watered down in 2007.
.
I guess when all these money savings are in place, the old pensions(aps/naps) will be shut and all staff will be in the super(mps), I wonder if the the flying staff will still keep the advantage of an inflated pen pay figure, ie 17.5/19.0% more than ground staff, may be that's fair ???

Anyways, my thoughts with the CC, it's not their fault they in this position, however the oldies have enjoyed the cream, the newbees will pay the price!!!

They'll keep this 'advantage' for as long as ground staff have the 'advantage' of a 5 year increase to their NRA rather than the 10 year one for flying staff.

This thread has become very large and cumbersome. We seem to have reached a point in these proceedings where decisions are being taken, so it is time to start a new thread. Please continue this topic at...
