BA crew announce next four-day strike
British Airways cabin crew are planning to take further industrial action from February 17 to 20.
Their union Unite announced the next walkout by BA’s mixed fleet crew on the penultimate day of its their latest three-day strike, which ended on Saturday.
BA responded by saying that it will make contingency plans, which will be announced on Tuesday.
"We have flown all customers to their destinations during the previous strikes by mixed fleet Unite and we will ensure this happens again," it said.
The cabin crew are striking over what their union claims is ‘poverty pay’. BA claims their wages are in line with the rest of its crew.
