Pilots union Balpa’s BA members walked out over 9-10 September in a dispute over pay and conditions. The union believes IAG has failed to adequately reward BA pilots for the part they have played in the group’s record £3 billion profits.
A second strike scheduled for 27 September was later called off, but not before BA had already begun to revise its flight schedule to mitigate the impact of the walkout.
Ahead of the action earlier this month, BA warned the strikes would likely cost the airline around £40 million a day.
