I can only hope this is true. We are booked to fly early December. It's been an awful year and we are desperate for our well-earned holiday. I'll be devastated if it gets cancelled and while I understand that pilots have issues with the way things are going with BA (and that unions are within their rights to carry out legal strike action), I genuinely check this thread with trepidation and will do until 14 days before our flight...
