A strike by British Airways cabin crew has gone ahead after talks between the airline and the Unite union collapsed.
BA says that 65% of passengers will still be able to reach their destination during the first three-day strike, even though a total of 1,100 BA flights out of the 1,950 scheduled to operate will be cancelled.
A further four days of action are set to begin on 27 March, although BA has said this weekend’s action could disrupt flights into next week as well.
Cabin crew are striking over pay and working conditions.
