BA cabin crew provide a better service than others.

I understand that they 'look nicer' too on the whole GJ, like they used to look in the old days, all glammy and made up
I disagree - I was an Air Stewardess for a different Airline and we always looked very smart and well made up (not glammed to with an inch of our lives) and polite JUST like BA cabin crew. The only difference was BA 'thought' they flew in a different sky to everyone else and because the were employed by the 'leading' airline they were so above all of us.
Our airline was small by comparison but we gave just as much to our passengers and after a test back in 1989/1990 (God I feel old) between BA and our airline we got better marks for safety procedures which is predominately what cabin crew are there for. Not for flouncing about the cabin all fake tanned and glammed up with snotty looks on their faces... I've had my fair share of run ins with BA staff. I may add they're not all like that as there are always some goodun's in a bad bunch.
I think the striking by BA is dreadful
They are never bloody happy. And I'm saying this even though I have two very good friends who are BA cabin crew... They know my feelings **shakes fist in their direction**
Just as an aside - I got 200 passengers off a plane down the slide in a real emergency landing in record time (go me
) - I didn't have to lie down afterwards like some crew did I went out an hour later on another flight on a different plane with different passengers because that was what I was paid to do!
