CARRYING OVER S.T. ENTITLEMENTS ...
Hi everyone ...
As a result of questions about Staff Travel I got from attending the recent 'Bracknell Bash' (Shorthaul Reunion), I went through my colleagues at the FSLC to get as many answers as I could.
One in particular has now been very helpfully answered by Niki Benzinski, Staff Travel Manager, Australasia, and relates to the concession enjoyed by current crew for carrying over unused annual entitlements... and I'm hoping it may be of use to you all:-
Former staff concessions are unchanged in that they expire 31/3 every year and cannot be carried over to the next Staff Travel year, beginning 1st April.
It does mention it in the Former Staff Travel Guide (as below).
The Former STG is accessible via FAQs on the Internet (Employee Self Service)
May I ask that if you, or your former colleagues, have any queries you contact the Staff Travel technical experts via email:

The BA concessions that you are eligible to are listed on your ‘Personal concession’ screen prior to you starting your online booking.
An Annual Bookable concession will show that it is valid to 31 March.
All travel must be completed by this date except when outbound travel takes place in March; return travel can be completed by the end of April.
If an Annual Bookable concession has not been used by 31 March it cannot, under any circumstances, be extended beyond this date.
You remain eligible to your former staff travel concessions for the period equal to your full number of years’ service completed with the Company.
In addition to your staff travel concessions, you also qualify for Hotline tickets (refer further down)...'
