I guess it's subjective based on your view point, however in my view, I'm grateful this has now passed out of the school summer holiday time line, though that does seem to be more by chance than anyone's doing.

I have this view as I have less concern about the strike impacting business trips, including my own, than I did about it impacting family holidays, including my own.

That said I know a lot of people's business trips are important to them and people also outside of school holidays, also that uncertainty is not nice.

There really is no good way for this to pan out that suits everyone and their timelines/plans.
