"Mr. Booker said he learned on Friday that he had tested positive for Covid-19, the disease caused by the new coronavirus. Ms. Liell said the men had spat and yelled in Mr. Booker’s face when they confronted him on July 4."

"BA had told its senior crew that, if rehired, their pay would be only 80% of current basic in a new single fleet. The airline currently operates with two “fleets” of crew – longstanding staff and a lower-paid “mixed fleet”, which critics accuse BA of setting up to undercut pay and conditions during the strikes of 2010-11. BA now wants to merge the two into a single lower-cost fleet. But the small print now shows that in a new single fleet the basic pay of the longstanding crew would be frozen permanently and eroded by inflation. They may also be rehired at a lower rank, losing a further 10%."
