To Mr.D



Dear Mr D.. I wasn't asking a question, hence no question mark after take unpaid leave. It was a statement. Not too many expected BA to have such loses with those record high airfares....much higher than Emirates or the competition. I hope you were adding your opinion for the poor employees of British Airways and supporting them, because they too have families to feed. As far as the top brass sitting on their behinds whether it's BA or Emirates, I have no pity for them. They will survive this crisis and CONTINUE to get paid and live incredibly luxurious lifestyles.. Cheers to all!!!!!

To The Analyst



As widely reported on 16 June....

"Unions at British Airways have reacted angrily to a request by chief executive Willie Walsh that its 40,000 staff should work without pay for a month." This after a record pre tax loss of 401 million pounds.

So to answer your question, yes I have seen British Airways asking their flight attendants to work for free!

Hers friends and followers on tweet don't have the finances to even look at the Emirates First Class Cabin. Advertising only works when it's positioned to the right audience. You do know that the US is in a global recession with unemployment close to 10%, millions of jobs still being made redundant?? The last thing anyone wants to see is her sleeper seat. I guess Emirates needs to spin everything, when they've been hit so hard. Have you seen British Airways asking their flight attendants to work for free or take unpaid leave. Emirates did the unpaid leave request first, several months ago, but BA?? Cheers to all.

Paris to Dubai and back



From what I have read and seen from behind the curtain, it's no surprise that Paris (may I call you that?) was gushing. The size of some small studio apartments in Dubai and with your own personal on call service...what's not to like? Marketing hype or personal hype for the TV show? Most probably the later.
