Union members among Virgin Atlantic cabin crew will strike twice in the new year after they voted in favour of industrial action. The strikes will run for 48 hours each, starting at 0600 on Wednesday 9 January and from 0600 on Friday 18 January.
Unite union members say Virgin crews are underpaid compared with their counterparts at other airlines.
They voted 71% in favour of taking the first industrial action in the airline's history.
