Planned strikes at major airlines threaten to cause travel chaos for British holidaymakers next month. Staff at Ryanair and easyJet have confirmed they will take industrial action in the coming days in disputes over pay.
Meanwhile, British Airways staff at Heathrow airport have voted to strike. It comes after the airline failed to roll back a 10% pay cut imposed during the pandemic.
Thousands of British passengers are set to be caught up in the disruption after easyJet on-board crew in Spain voted to strike for a total of nine days in July. Ryanair staff, meanwhile, are planning a three-day walkout, also in Spain.
