The Cabin crew at British Airways is to vote on whether to go on strike over cost-cutting plans by the airline’s management.
If the workers vote for the strike, travel on British Airways between England and the Caribbean could be seriously disrupted during this Christmas season.
The decision of the ballot of the 14,000-member cabin crew will be made known on November 2.
The workers\' union has been in talks with management since British Airways announced it planned to cut 1,700 jobs, freeze pay for current staff, and offer lower wages for new employees.
