BA cabin crew's high life

Simon Calder points out in today's Independent some shocking facts about the easy life enjoyed by BA cabin crew.
He says: 'Never mind another country: some of their counterparts in other airlines accuse BA cabin crew of living on another planet. When easyJet flies from Gatwick to Sharm el Sheikh in Egypt, its cabin crew stay for no more than an hour before coming back; when BA flies the same route, the crew get two or three nights, on full pay and while staying in a five-star hotel, to enjoy the Red Sea coast.'
The strike vote is not quite in the 'turkeys voting for Christmas' category but the timing was hardly designed to get public support for their cause.
