As the BA cabin crew strike enters its fourth day, some good news for football fans has been announced by BA. As they stated that all football fans booked on BA planes bound for the World Cup in South Africa would be unaffected by the 3rd walkout by BA staff which is due to start on the 5th June ending on the 9th June 2 days shy of the start of the tournament.
Talks were carried out yesterday between BA and Unite but again a solution looks a way off. The welcome news for football fans is part of the 80% of flights that BA say will operate at Heathrow airport. BA seem confident that every time Unite orders its members to strike they can operate at higher level to the previous strikes.
Unite say they will ballot its members for more strikes in July but BA don’t seem to be to bothered and you have to think that BA are starting to get the upper hand now as the long battle rages on.
