Readers will remember in this post I warned the BA – Iberia merger would not be painless. Clearly the stress is getting to their workers as BA staff have announced their plan to reward themselves with a 12-days-of-Christmas holiday, downing tools (or coffee pots?) from 22nd Dec until 2nd January.
I’d assume this is just an excellent negotiating stance as surely to ground all BA flights for almost a full fortnight over the Christmas period would mean the airline would never take to the skies again?
Story here.
If you manage to see the press conference, listen out near the beginning for the journalist ever-so-slightly losing his temper as his Christmas travel plans evaporate.
