Another reason ballers only use BA.

quote:

PARIS, March 13 (Reuters) - Air France on Tuesday said it had rejected a demand by staff for a 6 percent wage increase and instead offered unions to compensate workers for any reduction in spending power since 2011, hoping to avert a planned March 23 strike. The carrier said its workers’ demands were impossible to meet in the current financial situation without compromising the company’s growth strategy, and proposed negotiations. “As a result, at the end of these negotiations, no Air France employee will have seen their purchasing power decrease over this period,” the company said in the statement. “Management has asked the unions to lift their strike notice and has indicated that it is willing to begin talks as quickly as possible,” it added.

No, but because these crazies will strike in a few days and everyone will be stranded.

I bet organized labor over there is strong enough to crush the life out of a business, UAW-style.

6% is a pretty aggressive across-the-board demand.

I only fly Oneworld so I typically take BA when I go to London, at least 4 times a year.

Is it?

How long has it been since the last CBA and were there COL increases built in?

Based of the part quoted, it seems like the answer is 6-7 years ago and “Non”

1%/year isn’t that aggressive.

All boohoo for the company. I've been apart of several contract negotiations and the pure shite the company will tell members and the public is hilarious.

The airline unions in the US are getting the pilots a lot more than 6% these days.
