BA Direct Entry Pilot.
They're also offering temporary secondments from the A380 to A350, killing two birds with one stone (dealing with the A380 surplus whilst filling the gaps of the poor A350 bound DEPs who had their contracts torn up..

Was merely a joke, dear boy. The fruit was hanging too low to ignore; besides, I needed to make my yearly post!
We got to see how truly awful some people could be during last year's pay talks. I personally hope said individual never works in aviation again.
Cheers and good luck to all those affected by this stupid bug.

After the announcement today that the government will cover 80% of an employees wage with a limit of £2500.
Is there any possibility that would include the FO’s who have had their job offers withdrawn due to Covid-19? Or do you have to be employed by the company and have your salary paid by BA and then the government pay the 80% back to BA?
Sorry if it’s a silly question, can’t really find the details anywhere at this early stage.

For those of us who have a family and mortgage to pay for and no prospect of returning to our previous employers this would be a lifesaver.

IAG don’t have a choice on the government wage guarantee, unless of course they just make thousands redundant. That would do far more damage to them than allowing employees to accept help offered by the government.

Agreed. Unfortunately I don't think it will help us who have had our contracts rescinded already, from my understanding the company would have to request a grant from HMRC to cover up to 80% of the employees wages.
1. I can't imagine IAG wanting to do that.
2. They would need to reinstate our rescinded contracts and put us on the payroll. A big ask of a company that are willing to withdraw your job offer just weeks before your start date.

To the kind person who offered to add me to the WhatsApp for withdrawn contract people... can’t sent over my number or the number of another chap in the same position, if you could delete the messages in your inbox so I can send them that’d be great. Thanks and apologies to everyone else for spamming the thread!

Also re: not accepting govt help, I’m only going off a slide on a presentation I wasn’t meant to see outlining current operational proposals
‘BA not looking for government support to keep investor confidence high’
Make of that what you will and I tend to agree with those who have replied, but I’m just reporting what I’ve seen.
