The summer holidays look set to be more turbulent than ever after British Airways workers at Heathrow Airport voted in favour of taking strike action. A total of 700 workers will take to the picket lines during the summer holidays when demand from travellers is expected to be near pre-pandemic levels.
The unions, made up of Unite and GMB, said the action was due to a 10% pay cut imposed during the peak of the pandemic not being reinstated. British Airways also cut around 13,000 jobs.
Dates for strikes have yet to be announced as unions give British Airways a chance to respond. But here's everything you need to know about what will happen and what you can do about flights already booked.
