Well, just great thanks BA! Looks like my long awaited and planned for girlie weekend away to Spain could be in jeopardy.

Does anyone have experience from the last strike as to how long before their flight they knew it was cancelled?

We are going to have to come up with a plan b, (and maybe c if the volcanic ash is thrown into the mix!!!!)

You could get the ferry to Spain from uk?

ruddynorah · 10/05/2010 18:01

why does anyone still book with BA?

merlin · 10/05/2010 18:30

Ruddynorah - flights booked before problems started.

Hinny - we only going Fri til Sun, so ferry not an option.

"why does anyone still book with BA? "

Er... perhaps because there isn't a choice in some cases?

They are arses aren't they. Bloody stupid given what has been happening recently with all the delays due to the ash situation.

I got caught up in it all in December when they were going to strike and ended up having to pay to fly with another airline as had to get home and couldn't risk my flight being cancelled.
We'd already booked flights for next month to fly back to the UK and now they are up to their bloody tricks again.
Am bloody livid as due to land lunchtime at LHR and have to be in London at 7pm that night to see my daughter sing at the Barbican. The bastards better not strike on that day.

How the hell do they think they are going to get any public sympathy this time round?

Amidaiwish, will now go and abuse them on your thread
