TROUBLES FOR OVER 80.000 PASSENGERS
British airways ground staff returned to work yesterday after a strike on Friday and Saturday left thousands of passengers on the ground. The strike at the Heathrow Airport led to the cancellation of more than 500 flights.
Heathrow is the world`s busiest international airport, and long queues formed as passengers arrived for cancelled flights. Hundreds of them were unable to find hotel accommodation and spent Friday night in the terminal. The strike continued on Saturday and cancellation also affected people scheduled to return to Heathrow from destinations all over Europe.
BA ground staff called the strike because of proposed new working conditions. Passengers criticized BA`s response to the strike. They complained that no staff were available to help people. Angry travellers also asked why no senior managers were present. According to the Union representative, the staff later returned to work, as a `gesture of goodwill`.
One family, the Condies, were on their way to Spain for their daughter`s wedding. They said they now expected to arrive for the ceremony 48 hours too late, after saving for more than a year in order to pay for the trip. Many other passengers had a similar story to tell.
A British Airway spokesperson said the company hoped to restore normal service as soon as possible, but that there were problems because of the backlog of cancelled flights. Shares in the company fell by 3.9% on the London stock market on Monday morning and experts estimate losses of over £10 million per day in revenue as a result of the strike.
