I just hope the actions of the striking cabin crew doesn't leave to the downfall of BA, already a lot of people are sick of all the uncertainty that surrounds flying BA and are talking of taking their business elsewhere.
That's my fear also. I certainly would not have booked my upcoming flight on BA in the current situation, although I'm also hoping as suggested earlier that it is unlikely the strikes will continue beyond the election.
