BA cuts costs to combat increased competition
Article Abstract:
British Airways is altering its payments structure for travel agents as part of a cost cutting drive. The company aims to cut costs by 500 million pounds sterling, and job losses are probable, though there has been little detail on how the savings are to be achieved. British Airways faces strong competition in all its markets. Ticket sales could be affected by changes in arrangements with travel agents, though the company aims to increase the proportion of tickets sold online.
