Out of interest, do you have hours on the 777/787? Thanks in advance and best of luck.

When I applied I don’t think it was split like that, it was just DEP. I had mentioned I wanted SH LGW at phase 2 and 3, and also on getting the news I’d passed the sim check. They then offered LHR 787 so I asked again if SH LGW was available, and got that instead later the same day! As a side note, they did say they don’t usually accommodate requests, but as what I was after was usually less popular they could do it on this occasion, so can’t hurt to ask. |

Does BA have status pay? Same pay no matter what fleet you are on? If so wouldn't short haul get you senior much more quickly and therefore more control of your roster?
I'm trying to compare salaries. What would a 5/10/15/20/25 year BA captain earn on PP24 and PP34? |

Compare and contrast the grumbles we hears about short haul rosters that have umpteen days of consecutive work and a nasty mixture of “lates” and earlies” vs. the grumbles about having to four or five trips in a month, three of which are HKGs and therefore not getting a weekend off....(not making that 3 HKG in a month grumble up BTW, it was made publically by a junior 380 P2 recently) Different strokes, apples vs. Oranges etc. |
How long is it taking to find out after stage 3?
Hi all, I did stage 3, 3 weeks ago and haven’t heard from recruitment team yet. We were told we would hear within 2 weeks. Anyone waiting a similar time? Thanks. |

Get your application in before everyone else beats you to it... offer of a 2.3% pay rise with over a billion pound profit :D
What an insult. |

How the hell did BALPA let them get away with that ???????
If you join now you will get treated with contempt by any and all management but you will get a lovely centenary tie pin. Swings and Roundabouts. |
Well I was stood next to a new batch of DEPs yesterday in the CRC, all looking super happy. All carrying a cardboard box, I wonder what was in there?! |
That all depends on whether it was centenary pin sized or iPad sized? |

Vaseline?? Give it 6 months and see how happy they are working every weekend, constantly changing early/late and working ridiculous rostering patterns. But we have leave? They'll just fit all the hours into the rest of the month! |

Sadly there isn't much better alternatives out there. It may not be perfect but it isn't exactly a bad gig is it.
I never had pay withheld at previous (cap overrun). I understand Christmas NCP has also been 'missed'. SH rostering is far better elsewhere. Its great to see BALPA standing up given the company response to the pay deal, though. |
When was the last time BA released slots for the 3rd stage? |

Not sure if this has been discussed before but has a Fixed Pattern Roster ever been explored? Had it at a previous company many moons ago and it made a HUGE differerece when it was introduced. It has big benefits without really costing the company a penny save for the extra manpower hours required to administer it. I reckon it would decrease sickness and fatigue which would more than payfor those office hours. Any thoughts from applicants at EZY, FR & DHK? |

Agreed. Let’s see how far the courage for a fight goes over an insulting pay offer. That said, the initial pay claim was very weak given the current profitability of the airline.
