BA cabin crew to stage 72-hour strike in dispute over pay
ByReporter
The strike will be held from January 19
British Airways cabin crew are to stage a fresh strike in a dispute over pay.
Members of Unite will walk out for 72 hours from January 19 following two days of industrial action this week.
The union warned of “continuing and deepening” anger among members of the so-called mixed fleet crew, who have joined BA since 2010.
Unite claims they are on “poverty” pay rates, with many forced to take on second jobs or turn up for shifts if they are sick because they cannot afford to be off ill.
