Striking BA crew forfeit travel perks
British Airways has withdrawn travel perks from staff who strike.
The carrier confirmed that those who took part in last weekend’s three-day walk out would not enjoy the major discounts on travel that British Airways employees get on top of pay.
Staff union Unite blasted the carrier for its “vindictive” action. The union plans to oppose the move officially, despite the fact that BA says the perk is non-contractual and can be withdrawn at any time at the discretion of management.
Chief executive Willie Walsh warned staff of the removal of the perks before they walked out last Saturday.
