BA to give £2M to Queens Jubilee fund!?
 

Is this true and if so why? <img src="confused.gif" border="0"> <img src="mad.gif" border="0">

Hovis,

Where did you hear of this little gem? I do hope it is not true.

Much as I admire and respect the Queen, maybe she ought to be giving BA $3million!

They need it more than she does.

Notwithstanding the fact that her 50 year reign should be recognised.

Cheers,

It was in the Sunday Times as well.

Not only BA but Consigna, Allied Irish Bank and several others who are losing money hand over fist.

Perhaps it's a way of buying back the rights to the Union Jack on the tails. Still whats £2m, a couple of suits, 50 odd pilots and a few hundred cabin crew's jobs. Chop a few routes. Perhaps the spare parking places at BA LGW could be rented out to Easy / Ryan passengers leaving from LGW.

Could be a way to recognition by knighthood for someone. Wonder who.
