Should industrial action by BALPA members cause flight cancellations and/or delays, will BA ticket holders be protected under the above Regulations.
Simple question.

Does any one care about the BA passenger?
As you can see, in my post above, I asked if anyone could provide some guidance about how BA ticket holders may or may not be protected under EC Regulations if their booked flight is cancelled as a direct result of industrial action.
As you can see.......no reaction.
I started a thread on this forum as it seemed the most appropriate to use?
I am not a "stirrer" I am not BA "management" or a pilot - I am a holder of a non-refundable BA long haul tickets later this month for my family. BA have not replied to my emails and I thought someone on this forum could give me some guidance.
I thought both sides in the dispute "cared about the passengers" ??.

My insurance provider refers me the EC Regulation as this is designed quite properly to give the cancelled/delayed passenger certain rights and in specified conditions defined levels of compensation.
The question is......does a flight cancellation/delay caused by strike action qualify under this Regualtion as opposed to say.....crew absence or a techical failure on the aircraft?
