The fur no longer flying at BA

Monday, 23 Jun, 2011 0

British Airways and its cabin crew have called a halt to their cat-and-mouse game – with the cat appearing to win.

The mouse, however, called it a draw.

BA cabin crew union Unite said 92 percent of members have backed a deal struck with the airline after a battle lasting nearly two years.

Under the settlement, staff will get a two-year pay deal worth up to 7.5 percent and striking cabin crew will have their all-important travel perks restored.

Unite boss Len McCluskey said, “Unite always firmly believed that this dispute would be solved, not through conflict but through negotiation.

“Thankfully we have reached an honourable agreement with BA.”
