The ground staff are discontent with their union’s deal with management so they are currently imposing a ‘work to rule’.

I recently booked a friend on BA, TLS to LGW in economy, LGW to TLS in business. Including a £10 phone booking supplement and a £25 overseas ticketing charge and all taxes, total cost £160.
The nearest flight timings on EZY would have cost a little over £700.

err…that would be me then! 😀

Smooths out the wrinkles nicely :p 😉

BA already give out pretzels (at least they do out of Gatwick). I find them as tasty as the cardboard box my breakfast cereal comes in!

Similar question about the 764. Also how many did they sell?

Does anyone know if enough profit was made from 753 sales to cover costs?

I should add that those points about the 753 are really quite minor. It’s still a delightful aircraft to fly…it’s just that the 752 is much nicer. My only significant criticism of the 752 is that it is not enough positively stable in roll.

Things are going fine, Duess. Best bit is that I now get Upper Class food as standard. I got my uniform trousers 2″ too big in anticipation (and I’m not joking!).
