well I heard from WW himself today that the move from BA underwing ops has nothing to do with a move from BA. He said that is part of their conditions within the franchise to choose this and does not indicate a move form BA.
He said as far as he knows the franchise is ongoing until 2010 and they are contemplating whether or not to stay with BA after this date as they cannot necessarily see the advantages over the costs.

Flyer55,
What else did he have to say? Any of the dispatchers raise the issue on how they been shafted on APPG and the split of the section?
Would like to have gone along but currently away in Europe at the moment.

FlapJack, don't be too hasty...

History tells us that statements like these are normally made immediately before exactly the opposite happens!

for the same reason that he did hold a forum at LHR base and now LGW after the threat of industrial action in an attempt to improve industrial relations and cummunications. In a few words your assumption regarding the timing of the forum is pretty out of place.

Be warned fellow friends at GB.
BA had no interest in the fate of BMED. We carried many of their Club World Passengers, BA made easy cash out of us for doing nothing other than let BMED wear the BA Colours.
They don't care about your future.
I wish you luck.

Guys and Gals,
I think you are seriously disillusioned if you think that there will be a big announcement in the coming days,..........
There will be no annoucement whilst the threat of a strike is there,......
