BA cabin crew dispute is finally over
British Airways and its cabin crew have finally settled their long-term industrial dispute.
Cabin crew union Unite said 92% of members have backed a deal struck with the airline after a battle lasting nearly two years.
Under the settlement, staff will get a two-year pay deal worth up to 7.5%.
BA has also agreed to bring back travel concessions taken away from staff who were involved in the strike action.
Unite general secretary Len McCluskey said: “Unite always firmly believed that this dispute would be solved, not through conflict but through negotiation.
“Thankfully we have reached an honourable agreement with BA.
“The overwhelming acceptance of this deal by cabin crew means that both parties can now move forward together on securing a bright future for the airline.”
