British Airways Heathrow staff will strike over pay during summer 2022
Around 700 BA workers are planning to strike during the summer holidays as travel demand will most likely reach pre-pandemic levels. The British Airways workers want higher wages, as according to the union, the airline has still not reversed the 10% pay cut imposed on employees during the peak of the pandemic.
This British Airways Heathrow staff strike will likely lead to many flight disruptions, including flight cancellations. The dates of the strike will be announced in the coming days.
