Willie Walsh has endured a terrible few weeks since the shambolic opening of BA’s flagship Terminal 5 at Heathrow, but can he keep his job?
As we reported last week, Gareth Kirkwood, BA’s director of operations and David Noyes, its director of customer services, were fired. This was despite Walsh, a day after the opening of Terminal 5, saying: ‘I am not going to start trying to find someone else to point the finger at … The buck stops with me.’ Cast your predictions below.
A mountain of problems - are piling up for Walsh.
- Over 350 flights have been cancelled (since Terminal 5 opened)
- BA has lost an estimated 19,000 bags
- £16m in lost revenue and compensation
- Unions are threatening to strike

- The credit crunch is affecting bookings
- Relations between pilots and management at an all-time low
