british airways services from heathrow are likely to bear the brunt of any cancellations.ut ba said the relaxed rules would help them provide certainty to customers by making it easier to consolidate some quieter flights. ba is already facing the threat of summer strikes from cabin and ground crews over a pay dispute. today, there are already strikes by ryanair and easyjet cabin crew in spain, and some passengers have been stranded across europe. so what should you do if you're caught up in all of this? crucially, i know what my rights are if anything is cancelled and that is to get a replacement flight on the same day if there's anything available that will take me there at the airline's expense, and then furthermore hotel accommodation if need be and compensation if it's the airline's fault, which, if it's technical issues or staff shortage, it generally is. but for one passenger who's stuck in geneva after having his flight to bristol cancelled for three days in a row, it's tough. i don't have any available funds to pay for anything. _ easyjet have said they'll. refund

i have got four flights booked with british airways in the next couple of months.ill be told sometime next week that one or more of those flights have been cancelled. that will give me time to find an alternative, either on ba or on another airline on the same day if ba doesn't have anything available. the main problem is actually going to be available to for people who want to book late on, and the prices that are being charged. already, ba, between now and the 11th ofjuly, any short—haul flight anywhere in europe is absolute top price. athens, £750, rome £656, and even manchester, over £400 for a flight which generally takes about half an hour in the air. the reason ba are putting those fares up is to leave enough space so that if they do have to cancel flights, they can actually accommodate passengers on the surviving flights. my advice to anybody with a flight booked is just assume it will go 0k, be aware of your rights if the flight is cancelled, and of course be kind to front—line staff. we have seen terrible scenes with people desperately trying to get away

how are things between pilots and british airways, lufthansa, united, you name it?> they are not great. i'm not going to say united should be in the group. but right now there's a lot of tension between american airlines, delta air lines, southwest airlines, and those airlines and management. yesterday american airlines issued a new contract proposal to its pilots offering a 16.9% pay increase. that would be in place by the end of 2024. that certainly is very compelling. united had put out a proposal a couple of weeks ago to its pilots. that appears to be dead in the water right now. i think united's pilots and management will renegotiate that. they seem to be a little bit more collaborative there. delta which has a reputation for having one of the best relationships between management and labor is really, really struggling. yesterday they were picketing by delta pilots at several airports. the delta pilots say they are being overworked, as do southwest pilots. delta pilots are also frustrated that in their opinion delta outsources a lot of the long haul internation
