Jobs Could Go at BA.

Post by Nigel H-J »

Due to Coronavirus so they reckon.

Sporting fixtures will be postponed or cancelled, I was rather looking forward to the new F1 Season but this will surely be impacted for the rest of the year but in what way is any-ones guess, the safest way to running the series would be televised races only with no spectators.

Yep, doubt they'll be the only ones. My wife and I are due to travel to Portugal with Jet2 a week on Sunday for a cycle tour but looks like it will be a race against time to get there and get back before more areas get closed down.

I expect to see quite big changes well before the end of next week. Already people and traffic was much lighter in London yesterday morning. Mind you that was 06:30 so maybe it was more a case of CBA to get up so early.

This will have enormous repercussions unless it peters out fairly soon . I am very worried for a former neighbour of mine , who has 3 young children. He was an A330 Captain with Thomas Cook, and when they folded , turned down a job with Tui and went on the Embraer with Flybe. Finding another job may now be very difficult

Noticing quite a few of aircraft landing at Lasham, Kemble, St.Athan and other storage airfields. I heard BA may accelerate 747 retirement too.
