I find it incredible that there is a conversation on here about an article that appeared in the SUN.
At last a company is fighting back! 11% increase over three years on a £200 grand salary and its not enough? They screwed so many peoples business and holiday travel this year the sooner they are brought into line the better. All power to British Airways!
I hope this also goes for retired pilots
As an unimportant fare-paying passenger what I regret is the fact that BA is directed and managed by a crowd of barrow boys who, over many years, have turned a once great airline into a low grade, unreliable, under-staffed, over-expensive cash cow for them and their city slicker cronies. It's the modern management method i.e. if you can't manage, charge more and pay less...and if you can manage, charge even more and pay even less...simples innit?
These idiot union bosses got a bot greedy.
It's a negotiating tactic. The airline will eventually agree to give it back in order to get the union to give up one of its demands.
I wonder if all BA Balpa members were actually aware and in agreement of the reason for the strike. The media is painting the greedy rich pilots very colourful with all their money. Those poor directors had no other solution than to remove the cooky-jar. How very British...
