British Airways Cabin Crew Strike
Posted by admin on 25 Jan 2007 | Tagged as: Airlines, Strikes
If you had a flight booked with British Airways has on January 30 and/or January 31, 2007, you may be out of luck. The company has cancelled all passenger flights out of Heathrow Airport due to a cabin crew strike. The airline also plans to ground all domestic and European flights to and from Gatwick for duration of strike.
From Yahoo news: “The cancellations will affect more than 140-thousand passengers. Moreover, British Airways has reportedly cancelled around 1,300 flights next week following a breakdown in talks with its largest union.”
That’s a huge number! It may get worse, depending on the strike situation.
British Airways customer service is helping those who already purchased tickets re-book flights for later dates or with other airlines.
