Flight attendants at British Airways who are members of the British union Unite are ready for a four day strike March 27-30, said AFA-CWA. During last week's three-day strike, more than 80 percent of crew supported the action.  

If the crew does strike, any British Airways flight operating March 27-30 will be crewed by scab labor. So mark your calendars and don't fly British Airways on those dates.

Unite flight attendants are fighting back against management's demand to cut 1,700 jobs, impose a two-year wage freeze and set up a two-tier job system. Unite has been working hard to reach a settlement with management and has done everything possible to avoid the strike, but so far, management refuses to seriously consider the cabin crew's offer.
