IN PICS: Travel chaos as British Airways strike continues
British Airways (BA) cabin crew began a three-day strike on March 20 after last-ditch talks on a dispute over pay and conditions collapsed, leaving thousands of travellers facing chaos. More than 1,000 flights are set to be cancelled over three days, followed by a potentially more disruptive second walkout for four days from March 27 ahead of the busy Easter holiday period.
