    agreed, but ditching it for the TUI scheme was worse than keeping the old livery

    Yep most transatlantic dublin flights stop at Shannon and so does it hink the JFK or the ORD EIN flight. I know the CO 767 one to EWR stops there too.

    Guys we had this thread when the case first went to tribunal. I will repeat what I told you at the time, as the full facts are as ever not being made clear in the press.

    The issue was in fact that BA changed the rules to suit their needs.

    The Starmers based their timing to have a family in part on the fact that the rules allowed for her to reduce her working hours to make childcare easier. She made her application for part-time while on maternity leave, which was approved. She later recieved a letter telling her that due to a change of rules her part-time contract would not be honoured. A manager then later admitted that the change was made to discourage the growing numbers of female pilots from applying for part-time contracts.

    ‘Sexism in the extreme’ was the judges expression. I agree.

    1L.

    I thought i heard there was more to it….

    If the press version is true it is surprising BA lost…..
