BA pilots agree not to strike at Easter

The pilots union in dispute with British Airways has pledged not to call strike action over Easter.

The British Airline Pilots Association said there would be no disruption to the public during Easter in a row over BA establishing its OpenSkies subsidiary to fly from the Continent to the US.

The union’s general secretary Jim McAuslan said: “Our row is not with the travelling public who will have worked hard for their Easter break.”
