Up until about half-an-hour ago, we weren’t sure! But, after the past 24 hours wondering whether the BA strike from the 22nd December would completely screw our holiday, it looks like there might be a glimmer of hope!
According to the PR Department at BA, none of this threatened strike action is relevant to Gatwick, because the staff there work under a different contract to the one that’s causing all the problems for Heathrow staff. Just to be paranoid, we’re going to call BA tomorrow to clarify things…
Phew!!!!
Willie Walsh’s Press statement is HERE and it does contain a reference to Gatwick being ‘OK’ (but it depends how you read it!

I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!
I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
