Amidst the ongoing troubles, British Airways is willing to take on more than 1,000 cabin crew for its Heathrow operations on an considerably curtailed pay scale and conditions in a fit to discontinue the relation with their present flight attendants.
Yesterday the staggering airline set a full-page color newspaper advertisement for the recruitment of new cabin crew team. The package for the openings is set to approximately £18,000 a year.
According to the airline they shall save £100m in the coming 10 years out of this move, which popped in two days after the Unite union represented along with most of BA's cabin crew and declared a fresh strike which could depict the walkouts during the summer in more numbers. The union has been in argument with BA since a year upon the working culture and practice modified by the firm and has already expressed their displeasure on the same with subsequent two rounds of strikes that which hurt the Heathrow services and leaving the Gatwick relatively unscratched.
However the analysts expressed that taking in lower paid staff at the Heathrow airport may take the way to a different level. John Strickland, aviation consultant added that this is the hub of the argument. But as of now BA has left with no choice but to handle its cost base as the airline has slithered out of tracks with accordance to their competitors.
