Virgin Atlantic are to cancel three flights on the 9th and 10th of January but run all other services as normal. This is because the Unite Union that represents cabin crew is planning industrial action over pay.

The flights that are to be disrupted on both the 9th and the 10th are return flights to Chicago, return flights to Boston and on the 10th, one return flight to New York and on the 9th just one outbound flight to New York.

Even more flights are soon to be cancelled including one return flight to Chicago and one return flight to Nairobi on the 16th January. One return flight to New York, one to Nairobi and one to Chicago will be cancelled on 17th January and one New York inbound flight will be cancelled on 11th and 18th January.

Virgin Atlantic bosses have released a statement that claims that their contingency plans mean 9 out of 10 flights will leave as scheduled each day. For those people whose holidays are disrupted, Virgin is promising to do its upmost to ensure that they do get to their destinations.

Any passengers that are booked on the cancelled flights are to be entitled to a full refund regardless of ticket restrictions.
