I'm assuming that they're not in the airline business then, because absolutely nobody is going to have any "time in the sun" in this rotten industry. There's only one way that salaries and working...

It's understandable that people don't want to face up to the reality, but ultimately it comes down to supply and demand. Airlines could literally offer any salary they choose to at the moment and...

Sadly, and I really hope I’m wrong, I don’t see it having any effect whatsoever. The government has no power under current legislation to do anything to sanction BA/ IAG beyond writing strongly...
