Letter: Condemnation for airline that swooped to conquer

Sir: The dirty tricks campaign conducted by British Airways against Richard Branson and Virgin Atlantic was disgraceful. The lack of honour shown by those responsible has brought disgrace upon themselves and an organisation that represents not only the world but also our country as a whole. The cynical actions of these people should not be tolerated.

I am a regular business traveller and until those responsible resign or have been dismissed, and there is evidence of a complete change in corporate values at British Airways, I shall avoid using the airline again. Many others, I am sure, share my feelings of revulsion and will choose to convey their disapproval in a similar manner.

Yours faithfully,
