For the first time, security officers based at Terminal 3, who voted in favour of strike action last week, will join colleagues from Terminal 5 and campus security on the picket line.
This escalation in the long-running pay dispute means a significant number of airlines face “disruption, delays and cancellations”, according to the Unite union. The T5 walkout was already expected to heavily affect British Airways’ summer programme, but Virgin Atlantic, Emirates, Qatar, United, American and Delta could now also face problems at T3.
The strike dates coincide with the Eid festival at the end of June, the beginning of the school holidays in July, and the summer bank holiday weekend (24-27 August).
Strikes are planned for the following dates:
- 24 & 25; 28-30 June
- 14-16; 21-24; 28-31 July
- 4-7; 11-14; 18-20; 24-27 August
Unite general secretary Sharon Graham said: “Unite is putting Heathrow on notice that strike action at the airport will continue until it makes a fair pay offer to its workers. Make no mistake, our members will receive the union’s unflinching support in this dispute.
