Good Luck BA Cabin Crew

... whether you're working or striking, a very personal decision, please know that not everyone on here is against you.

Good luck to all my fellow BA employees. Whatever way you feel and whichever side of the union / management decision you support, none of us are going to emerge from this without hurting a bit, I'm sure.

I have, however, been greatly encouraged by the strong support from our British Airways' loyal customers on this board, and thank them for it.

My feeling is that as long as this fiasco doesn't escalate, that we will still have a decent airline with a good customer base at the end of it!

Yeah I can see both the strikers and the non strikers points of view, just not the unions. I too hope today is peaceful and as many flights as possible operate.

There is a master thread both for strike discussion and ranting. Let's keep this in the spirit of the OP's post.

+1.

Good luck to all the cabin crew who are coming in to work this weekend, as well as to all the members of other BA staff who are filling in on various roles. Your efforts and courage make us proud, and will help make BA the great airline it can be. ^

I wish the strikers good luck. They are making an admirable sacrifice for the good of the CC workforce.

I also hope BA are forced to cancel many more flights than they have so far advertised. It doesn't look good though so far. No real chaos at Heathrow, very disappointing. Round 1 to WW.

Everyone is wishing the strikers a good luck.

However, I wish BA good luck and to survive in such economic conditions.

As I have said on a previous post - my thoughts are with those guys that are trying to keep BA flying during this time of turmoil.

Because of you I will continue to be a loyal BA customer for a long time to come.

May you end this sacrifice with dignity and strength.

Power to the workers.

^ Agreed hopefully as little trouble is caused to the travelling public and as many of the great CCs that keep me coming back to BA can go back to work instead of listening to a bunch of desk jockeys from the union that haven't got a clue!

I honestly don't understand people like you that can be content in other people's suffering, just so long as it helps your own agenda. Very sad really
