British Airways starts legal action

British Airways is commencing legal action in an attempt to protect customers from the massive stress and disruption threatened by Unite’s decision to call a 12-day strike from December 22. The airline has today written to Unite, highlighting irregularities in the union’s strike ballot, which the airline believes renders the ballot invalid. The airline called on Unite to call off the industrial action by 2pm today. The union has not done so and British Airways is now seeking an injunction to prevent the strike going ahead. Today’s letter was the third sent to Unite, pointing out the balloting flaws, since last Friday. The union did not reply to the first two letters. As a back-up to the legal action, British Airways managers have been establishing which cabin crew might wish to work normally during the strike period. Willie Walsh, British Airways chief executive, said: “We are absolutely determined to do whatever we can to protect our customers from this appalling, unjustified decision from Unite. “We do not want to see a million Christmases ruined.“Unite was told about the problems with its ballot on Friday. Yet it cynically went ahead with an extreme, highly publicised threat to our customers and our business in the knowledge that it might not be able to carry it out. “We remain available for talks with Unite at any time without preconditions.”

As I had only had Eton mess once before I thought I would give it another go.

It was followed by coffee, liqueurs and either fruit or chocolate. I think you could have both if you really wanted to! The service has been excellent and I haven't seen any passengers with any issues - usually it is the lack of food choice that brings out the worst in people. The penne pasta went first.

Beef or chicken?

I decided on the Dedham Vale Farm fillet of beef with Scottish girolles and Madeira sauce.


It was not only just the right amount but also it tasted good. The warm rolls kept coming and it is always nice to use a proper metal knife and fork.

The touch screens are very easy to use and there are a good range of movies and TV programmes to watch.

Just touch the screen and the controls appear for play, volume, pause etc.

With the headphones - they are the best yet I have used - plugged into the screen it leaves the seat cable free. Crikey got to go John Connor's helicopter has just crashed...

Off to New York we go

Just over two hours until I reach London and there are worst places to be than watching the day start while sitting in a large comfortable leather seat, in a First Class carriage, drinking coffee and watching the world go by. My original thought for this trip was to drive. But with the general hassle of driving over 200 miles to the airport, plus the congestion charge I thought I'd try the train. And so far it is great - the staff are friendly and the service has been swift - 2nd cup of coffee and a bacon baguette have arrived and we haven't arrived at Exeter yet!
