Hope none of you are flying British Airways over Christmas
 

A 12 day strike by cabin crew over the holidays has been announced. Apparently there are something like 1 million people booked on flights with BA over that period. Heathrow is going to be even more miserable than usual for the next few weeks.

Hey, thanks for the heads up!
I'm on the London-New York in a few days, better have it rescheduled on another airline.

the british people and their strikes...

not enough they ruined their car industry

Oh, just another strike. Thought they had an accident or some shit.

Thanks for the info, I have someone flying over :thumbsup

good info.thanks

Yep saw that on the news last night Thats gonna hurt BAA in the pockets and they are already struggling

People flying British Airways seem like real assholes, to me
The women won't talk to you, the men seem like they walk around smelling themselves all of the time, or something... just alot of assholes fly BA

good news to these man who will travel for xmas:
United Airlines: Round trip flights from $94
Hawaiian Airlines: Round trip flights from $272
United Airlines round trip flights from $94

thanks for the heads up. I'm going to London for a few days shortly after Christmas.

Interesting yet somehow not really fitting :)

The British aren't nearly as bad as the French but when one happens (such as the mail strike recently) it does appear to catch on.

i was once stuck in Paris in a huge traffic jam because the metro was on strike - so i know what you mean. but still the english workers destroyed most of their industry during the Thatcher years

Strategic moment to start a strike.Not in the benefit of the travelers.

And they earn up to double than their counterparts over at Virgin. This could kill BA:(

At least we still make the Robin Reliant...

:1orglaugh

you all have been sitting on an island too long :winkwink:

The strike is a DISGRACE !!!

And it will achieve NOTHING!


All it will do is put a company already in the shit with money, even further into trouble. Yeah smart move assholes. That will really help protect your jobs when BA goes BUST !!! :321GFY

Yeah, agreed - Here's vid of the ballot :mad:

The first time I saw one of those coming down the road I almost pissed myself with laughter.
