Stopped flying BA about six years back when they mergerd with IAG, after noticing how rude their employee's were becoming since the merger, big indicator of the health of an airline.
Their economy class is like most carriers extreme budget class, their business is like premium economy and their first class is like a shitty business class.
Then shit like this happens and we all can laugh at them because we know exactly whose fault it is and why it happened, also that now they tried to gag staff it's only going to be in the headlines for longer.
Top brass should set guidelines for their employee's behaviour. If they have not, then it is a poor business model and won't survive.
If it was an isolated incident, I would have written it off, but it was a slow decline of seeing one incident and then noticing the incidents get worse and worse, until eventually I saw a stewardess just walk off from a passenger making a complaint about a faulty seat and the entire flight staff ignored him for the rest of the flight....aside from him getting up and just taking things from the galley which I thought was quite funny, not to mention against aviation rules, yet the flight staff didn't care because they wanted to avoid him.
His seat was faulty, anyone could see that it was unable to recline at all.
For a near 8 hour flight, that isn't really acceptable behaviour at all from flight staff, unions, airline bosses, basically anyone associated with the incident.
I hope he took them to court.
A great company has, at minimum, average to good employee's. That rule has held true all my life.

“In the meantime, if you do not want to get involved or cannot get involved, I would kindly ask you to refrain from live commentary, unless it is a message of support to the thousands of colleagues that love BA as much as you do.”
It's hilarious that this evil feck is trying to call on the loyalty of employees. Especially after he made most of the IT department essentially dig their own graves (train their replacement), kneel in them and wait for their corporate overlords to wander past and put a bullet in their head .
Sorry. It doesn't work like that. US corporate stooges and their sycophants in middle management take note.
LOL. When you outsource you trade off people who are loyal and will work to fix the problem to a company where you will hear from whomever you've worked with for 8 hours say:
I am very sorry, my shift has ended. I will be handing you off to Sanjay who knows nothing of this problem now.

This warms my heart. I love to see outsourcing fail in the most expensive an inconvenient ways possible.

Wonder how much they saved using Indian IT folks versus their own after this CF.

You still have time to blame Putin. CNN will confirm this for you.

No, England is not up for sale...the Rothschild's bought it a few hundred years ago, and they're not looking to sell.
ps...They've controlled America since 1913.
