British Airways has won an injunction by the High Court that suspends the 12-day cabin crew strike. According to the court that made the decision, the strike was against the law because union had not balloted its members correctly.

Even if the strike is off, the union has the option of another, future strike or to appeal against the court ruling.

“We are delighted for our customers that the threat of a Christmas strike has been lifted by the court. It is a decision that will be welcomed by hundreds of thousands of families in the UK and around the world,” said BA.

In recent days, we believe Unite has formed a better understanding of our position and of the ways in which we could move forward. It has also become very clear that our customers do not believe that old-style trade union militancy is relevant to our efforts to move British Airways back toward profitability,” they added.

Your flights might be go as scheduled, if the union accepts the court’s ruling. Let’s hope for the best!
