You may have heard that Unite, the union that represents our cabin crew, has threatened strike action between December 22, 2009 and January 2, 2010.


Oh Jeez - That's like the peak season of the year. Lots of holiday plans are going to go upset!

British Airways wins injunction to avert major holiday strike

Fair Use:

Quote:
London, England (CNN) -- A strike that would have threatened the travel plans of up to one million British Airways passengers during Christmas and the New Year cannot go ahead, a judge ruled Thursday.

Judge Laura Cox issued an injunction blocking the planned 12-day strike, which was set to start December 22.

The airline immediately issued a statement saying it is "delighted for our customers."
