I left the airline 3 months ago after 2 and a half years of working for a company that doesn't value employees and just treats them as numbers. I had 2 weeks leave owing and this was deducted form my final wage. I have now found a job with a major international airline and I am very happy but guess what ?....3 months later I have received a letter demanding I pay GBP600.00 within 14 days or else !!! They make RyanAir look good and that takes some hard work ! Well if you think BA is bad to fly with imagine what it is like to work for them.

I booked a multi-leg flight directly on ba.com and a few weeks in advance of a trip and then soon after wanted to change one of the legs. It took THREE phone calls ("Sir, I'll forward your request to our change desk... please call us back in 1-2 days") to get the change made! - Food is worse than awful And I thought U.S. carriers had crappy food. Yes, yes, I know all the jokes about British food, but seriously... I wasn't sure whether I was eating veggies or spooning soup, and the chicken resembled something 'tween silly putty and tofu. And for breakfast, they were trying to kill us with sugar apparently: yogurt, cookie, fruit in syrup, and orange juice, I kidd you not. Blech. Never again will I willingly fly this airline!
