British Airways Cabin Crew Strike confirmed.

The Unite Union has this morning, Friday March 12th, announced that a strike by British Airways cabin crew will take place for 3 days from March 20th and 4 days from March 27th.

Flight rebooking: If you are due to fly during the strike dates and would prefer to change your plans then you can rebook your seats to dates outside of the strike, subject to availabilty, for a period of up to 355 days from your original planned travel date. Please contact your TMG account team for assistance.

Flight cancellations: British Airways will only provide refunds if your flight is cancelled or if your orginal ticket booking conditions allow. Your TMG account team will make contact with any travellers whose flights are cancelled.

British Airways are putting in place contingency plans to attempt to minimise disruption to the travelling public and currently state that:

  • All flights from London City Airport will operate as normal
  • All long-haul flights from Gatwick will operate as well as around half of short haul flights
  • A 'substantial proportion' of Heathrow long haul flights will operate and a 'good number' of short haul flights will also operate

We await further news from British Airways as to exact details of which flights will be cancelled. Once specific details are known we will contact all affected travellers to provide options and confirm travel plans.

Should you have any questions or queries whatsoever relating to the British Airways cabin crew strike then please do not hesitate to contact your TMG account team by the usual methods.
