No BA-Union Talks, Strike To Go Ahead Tomorrow

The Unite union said British Airways cabin crew's four-day strike would go ahead, no peace talks were set for today and strikes are set to begin again on Saturday . Causing more travel chaos before the busy Easter holiday period.

 BA put a proposal forward last Friday, which it said could form the basis of an agreement, but has since refused to put the initial offer back on the negotiating table or reinstate travel perks it has taken away from strikers.
Earlier on today BA's chief executive Willie Walsh said he was ready to meet unions to discuss a dispute with cabin crew but had no plans to do so before the new strike begins. BA says they will fly 75% of their flights during this strike period.
