BRAL merger into BA Citi Express
 

Gidday all,

I'd really like to know if anyone has any solid info with respect to the seniority lists at the new BA Citi Express.
I'm a new hire and have been told that I (like others) will be accommodated on the BA command seniority list???????
I realize that there could be / is a good deal of frustration from within the ranks of Brymon and probably BA mainline following the merger.
Questions like 'Where on earth am I now on the seniority list?' and 'I've been a First Officer at BRAL / Brymon for 2 years, is this DE Captain now ahead of me on seniority?'.
So my question is this.........where do the new hires sit on the ammended seniority list - ie are they climbing the ladder at the same rate as the existing crew?
Possibly an answer to this question is yet to be forthcoming.
With so many crew involved, I hope there is a satisfactory outcome for all.

Cheers
Beech :p

Beechcomber,

Which aircraft did you get posted to? I'd personally want to fly the 145 - quite a beautiful aircraft!

Not certain about the above seniority issue.

Cheers

Plenty of chat about this on the BACE private forum. If you are a BACE employee, get the password from the moderator and ask the question there.

Gidday Lav,

No, flying the best of British. Nice to be on the EMB, but having a crack at the ATP initially.
Thanks for the message Foster, I am in between the successful interview and the ground course start - no access to the BACE forum at this time unfortunately.

Bye :cool:

I'm with Brymon(well you know what I mean!) and I can say that the 2 camps are split at the moment over the issue of seniority(whats new).
BUT, I would like to know who has told you that we will be on the BA list because TDLF(GFMO) has told me, in response to a direct question after many beers that what you believe is nonsense.
Welcome to the company anyway & I hope he was lieing, or in the eloquent words of Mr Elwood Blues, "took the liberty of bulls@itting me".

For what its worth no BACE pilots are currently on the BA master seniority list and as far as I am aware there are no plans to add them to it.

Carnage and deadleg,

Thanks for the posts. Sounds like there is a good deal of uncertainty and speculation out there still.
Not to worry, I've taken alot of what I've heard thus far with a grain of salt. Great if it happens, but .....too bad, how sad, never mind.....if it doesn't.
See you around fellas / fellases....
All the best.

Cheers
Beech :D
