If you have 18k lying around it's an outstanding scheme. You could almost see that price tag as a positive as it will reduce the competition :O

More seriously, I'm not denying that opening up BA...

No but they could call a ballot and start the process of (perfectly legal) industrial action if they wanted. Doing nothing is a not a result of UK strike law, it's a decision made by pilots and their...

Once you have large numbers of crew switching a/c it makes sense to increase the amount of "down time" between flights. That way the crew can be waiting for the inbound aircraft and the next flights...

2017 is the only year in the foreseeable future when no (or maybe 1?) LH aircraft are due to be delivered so slower recruitment would be expected. 250+ a year for 4 years seems optimistic though!

What's the difference between this new JSS and the Carmen (preference based) system that LGW use? Is that being replaced aswell?

I imagine it's for varied reasons, but why has BA shorthaul (especially commands it seems) become so unpopular v LH over the last couple of years. The basic job (plenty of nightstops around Europe,...

What is the retirement rate like at BA? Is it set to increase over the next few years like at the US majors or not so much? I guess it's probably confidential, but there's no harm in asking :ok:

I'm not a BA pilot (unfortunately, one day maybe...), but if the 'only' outcome of the SHBR is a change to bidline and increased hours then surely that's not too bad? Is it being completely abolished...

Hard to answer I know, but what's the attrition rate like? These numbers are a bit meaningless without it.

It never fails to amaze me how many people on here seem to argue about money at BA.
