Hope as Talks Resume

UK air passengers are keeping their fingers crossed that BA and the Transport and General Workers Union can today broker a deal to avoid a scheduled two day walkout by British Airways cabin crew later this week.

Talks went well last night and it is hoped further progress can be made today to avoid the planned strike.

Meanwhile, thousands of passengers are hoping to get an early getaway on holidays and business trips to avoid the impending confusion that will occur if the union action goes ahead.

Long queues of people gathered at Gatwick airport yesterday trying to book available seats.

We all hope a speedy and fair agreement can be reached over pay and sick leave for all BA cabin crew.
