Gibraltar Chronicle - The Independent Daily First Published 1801: "BA CABIN CREW ANNOUNCE SERIES OF FIVE-DAY STRIKES
British Airways cabin crew are to stage a series of five-day strikes in their bitter row over jobs, pay and conditions, threatening travel chaos in the run-up to the summer holidays, it was announced yesterday. Unite said its members at the airline will take 20 days of action following their overwhelming rejection of the company's latest offer aimed at ending their long-running dispute. Cabin crew will walk out on May 18-22 inclusive, May 24-28, May 30-June 3 and June 5-9, which will cover the Spring Bank Holiday and school half-term holidays.
Unite's joint general secretaries Derek Simpson and Tony Woodley said: 'Passengers and investors alike will be dismayed that British Airways management rejected an approach by the union over the weekend, after their offer had been comprehensively turned down by their own employees."
