"This will probably cost BA something in the region of GBP£20 million a day but maybe less since they have some contingency plans in place," said Davy Stockbrokers aviation analyst Stephen Furlong. BA has trained staff from other areas of the company to fill in as cabin crew during the strike and has said it will hire 23 fully crewed planes from charter companies to help run flights from Heathrow. BA CEO Willie Walsh has said the airline must move away from its old, inefficient ways if long term survival is to be ensured, and that changes at the airline, which analysts believe is losing around GBP£1.5 million a day, are essential to help repair its precarious finances. Earlier Friday Gavin Halliday, BA's European head, said the strike threat had not hit bookings too badly
