HAL is by no means perfect but let’s be honest about where the real problems are.
Exactly - BA cannot complain about anything really at T5 as it's all under their control, even remote stand bussing. I have absolutely no sympathy for the shambles. If all BA office staff were made to fly once a week things would probably change very quickly...
