"Good old BAA get it wrong again":
or did the Mirror get it wrong? using its traditional standards of accurate and unbiased reporting. Without seeing the original article, who knows if it was in true bad taste or not.
Maybe its BAA's last chance for dark British humour before the jolly Spaniards take over.

I'm with GBZ on this one. The BAA may be cr*p (45min to get through T1 security yesterday, only three out of ten posts open, fast track closed for no discernable reason) but it will be a sad day when we can't take a humerous look at what's going on. 
Still, it probably sold a few more copies for the Mirror, so they won't care what they and other elements of the press are doing to this country.

NATS provide the ATC for all the airports that BAA 'run'. It is a totally separate concern.
NATS record regarding industrial action is exemplary - just as well really considering what it does - the country would come to a standstill if NATS ATCOs decid)ed to strike en masse.
Not likely to be an issue (unless of course management continue to try to screw up our pension!!

turnipgreen What it will be like in T3 next Saturday depends upon:
- Any govt actions about 'security' during the week
- Any actions by person or persons unknown around the world during the next week
- How much money BAA spends on staff for that day
- How busy the flights are on the day that you are going to travel - that are departing in T3
- Whether any passengers just ahead of you in the queue do anything that worries or frightens the staff.
- Whether any passengers just ahead of you in the queue do anything stupid.
