British Airway crews vote to strike

British Airways holiday travelers face the prospect of some holiday season chaos after cabin crew members voted to strike for almost two weeks over Christmas and New Years. This is in response to British Airways introducing cost-cutting measures including a two-year pay freeze and reducing number of crew members on long-haul flights. If this problem isn't resolved in time it will have a huge detrimental affect upon British Airways and it would disrupt many passengers who have already made flight arrangements with British Airways or have connections that must be made. Furthermore, the holiday season is usually a time when airlines are the busiest and there will be huge fiscal implications if British Airways misses out. So to all of you British Airways holiday fliers out there... sucks to be you.
