Birmingham Strikes

[beamer]

So I read today on the BHX airport website that the strikes are still on as talks between the airport and Amicus have broken down - read it for yourselves, the Union wanted a cash payment of 50 grand for two employees dismissed for 'gross misconduct'.

No doubt the moderator will want to move this but its important stuff for those of us at Brum and December could now be a total shambles !!!!!!!!

Yep big news for the airlines based there especially those who are struggling - BACX -. I have just booked with BMI to Brussels instead of BACX / SN Brussels because of the lack of certainty as to whether they will operate or more importantly any comfort on contingency plans from them.

"The Airport Company and AMICUS have agreed that the dispute will be referred to a process of independent binding arbitration."

Well at least I won't have to fly out of EMA over Xmas now!
