Heathrow strikes to go ahead for 10 days over Easter break
Heathrow airport has said that some passengers may face longer queues to get through security during the Easter holiday period after it was unable to strike a deal with security worker unions over pay. More than 1,400 security officers in the Unite union, who work for Heathrow Airport, are going ahead with a ten-day strike beginning on Friday. The airport says contingency plans will keep the airport operating. Ahead of the strike, Heathrow asked airlines to stop selling tickets and allow customers to change travel dates. Heathrow is advising travellers to check the status of their flight before travelling to the airport, arriving at Heathrow no earlier than two hours before short-haul flights and three hours before long-haul flights, and being ready for security.
