Travelling on strike days

Hi Octopussy,

I have now traveled short-haul 3 times on strike days - twice to Newcastle and once to Geneva. On all occasions I got there with no problems!! I did have to retain flexibility as there were definitely quite a few cancellations but BA allow you to change your flights if they happen to fall on strike days so you just change to a flight that IS running. The plus was that some people had obviously not traveled so the airport was a bit quieter and the staff were excellent (I assume that these are the ones who are keen to promote the company rather than destroy it!!) so the onboard service was great though the flights were pretty full!! Hope that reassures you,. I think it is important that we regular customers don't desert BA and allow BASSA and people like the guy now posting absolute rubbish on the other forum (Duggie) to even vaguely think that they have managed to put us off!!
