What happens if a strike does affect my travel?

We are booked on BA034 - LHR to CPT on Wednesday 31st and obviously nervous with the current BA/Union negotiations.

All of the hotel and safari bookings I have made in South Africa have very strict cancellation policies (100% of accommodation if cancelled within 7 days) and considering the costs involved, I’m want to ensure I am covered.

Worst case scenario and there is a strike which affects my travel, do you know how BA or Amex Platinum card insurance would deal with the situation?

I’ve MFU’d from WT+ to CW – in the event of disruption, changing my flight or booking me onto another carrier, do you think it is likely that I could end up being downgraded? Would I be classed differently as they are MFU seats?

Thanks in advance
