GB Flight Crew move to Jubilee House

Has this been posted yet?? If not, seems that GB pilots and cabin crew are moving to Jubilee House as of March next year. Pain in the a*#e this is but just another benefit being lost ie parking. Also not great news for the team of drivers who will all be losing their jobs. The benefits of working for GB are looking less and less appealing so pilots will (and already are) start looking around.What with BA Connect being sold off and GB having just set up Connect services from Bristol, East Mids and Manchester it seems the company are on a bit of a slide if they start to lose people. Was thiknking of joining them but l may just hang on where l am.

why would that be lost? - surely you will just start parking in car parks X, Y or Z like everyone else?

If you read his post, you will see he doen't even work for them!

(& if you pitched up for an interview [with that frame of mind] then it might be rather short)

The point I think Jet II was trying to make was that you would still have parking provded free of charge, it's just not right next to the building you report in.

One of the major benefits of working at GB has always been parking about 50ft from the offices and not down the road of death. This has been sold as a big reason to work there, and was a big plus point in my decision making. Any move to Jubilee House would add about 50min to 1hour to a working day. Multiply that by 200 ish days a year and you see why people are a bit hacked off.

Exclamation short sighted

Seems very short sighted to me, the 'hive' is a perfect location for minimising crew dispatch hassle -keep the 'Hive' - live GB !!

As a former inmate of Car Park "X"-ray I can sympathise. It is a right pain in the a$$. Not walkable and if you're in the North Terminal it's going to be an awfully long addition to the working day.

Just another symptom of the rot that set in with J Vegas/Slippery Bill and their cronies. What is the effect on the Airlines Costs?
