Possible BA Strike

They have voted to strike but haven't said when yet !!

Really? Where was that on? Sky news?

I am only looking at BBC online at present and I don't think it's up to date yet.

Goingsenile. I had a look at their policy with respect to strikes before and they will try to get you on another of their flights, a flight with another carrier or they will refund your money.

If you have to book with another airline and it costs extra, I'm not sure what happens. Perhaps look at the T&C's for your insurance to see if it is mentioned (I'm sure it is somewhere).

I was watching BBC online too but its slow still not reporting descision. Have changed to Sky and away to find my insurance policy!

Thanks for your help

Yes it is on sky news

Oh and goingsenile, have you looked at possibly changing flights somewhere. Can, oddly, cut the cost dramatically at times.

Worth a look if the insurance doesn't cover the extra cost.
