British Airways pilot tells passengers when not to fly as more problems predicted

As chaotic scenes continue to grip airports around the UK, an experienced pilot with Britain's national carrier has warned that more hard times are set to come. The British Airways (BA) pilot has also said that there are certain times of the summer that people should not book flights for.

The pilot, whose identity has been kept secret, spoke to the Mirror that the airline will continue to experience problems all the way through to the winter. It comes as passengers find themselves in crazy queues at airports across the nation, including at Bristol, with floods of flights being cancelled or delayed as well.

Speaking about life at BA currently, the pilot said morale is at its lowest ever level and lots of senior staff are considering leaving their job. On top of this, pilots are suffering from burnout.
