British Airways strike continues

Cabin crew want higher wages and more rest times.

In the mean time, BA has cancelled more than 1,000 of its 1,950 scheduled flights over the past three days. It insists, however, that more than 60 per cent of passengers will be able to fly today.

BA gave warning of further delays and cancellations this week as there was no sign of resolution in the cabin crew dispute.

It said that it was losing around £7 million on each day of strike action, at which rate the airline will have lost about £50 million by the end of next weekend’s planned strike.
