Fcuking BAA Scum Striking Over Bank Holiday

Whatever the cost, every airline wants to fly to LHR and nothing will persuade them otherwise. If the strike goes ahead airlines like BA might try and switch a few long haul flights to LGW if they can get the capacity. I've heard BHX and MAN being talked about as well. But again, capacity will be limited. I assumed that he meant the business would transfer "forever". Of course, some planes are going to be diverted during the strike. But after it is over they will ALL move back. tim |

Personally I think BAA airports in some parts of the UK are overstaffed. this would be why there are long queues at security checks, is it? Every airport has long queues at some time or another. My worst experience was non-BAA Birmingham.. |

I reckon BAA should voluntarily sell more airports if only to lessen the risks of block industrial action. Of course, some planes are going to be diverted during the strike. But after it is over they will ALL move back. Some diverted to really close non BAA airports..LGW and PIK for instance..might decide to move permanently.? |

Hey fcukers - there's a credit crunch on. Like fcuking BA cabin crew - get real. Thanks for ruining yet another family holiday weekend. All BAA Airports likely to be closed, including Heathrow. What total b'stards BAA workers and the scabby union Unite are. They don't give a toss for families or school kids trying to get away for a few days. Cutns.
