British Airways may be grounded again
 
British Airways cabin crew voted to strike again if BA does not restore all the perks.

Sheep (union members) being led by wolves (union leaders). Driving BA into the ground will not get them what they want - unless what they want is to lose their employment when BA goes under.

"British Airways may be grounded again"

Snow or volcano as I can't recall BA being grounded during any of the strikes.

typical union stuff to try to disrupt the royal wedding

they tried this last year

when I flew them last year nothing was disrupted BA staff

just took over for the cabin crew.

Had to fly up to Artic Circle to get back to the US though.

Truly amazing views of the ash cloud covering europe.

Now that was a disruption so insuremytrip.com always wise.
