Which? comments on forthcoming strike action at Heathrow Airport

Guy Hobbs, Editor of Which? Travel, said:

"The possibility of strikes at Heathrow grounding flights later this month will be of huge concern to travellers, with thousands now anxious as to whether their Christmas plans could be left in ruins.

"Airlines affected should work quickly to inform passengers of any potential changes to their booking as a result of strike action, and ensure travellers are aware of their rights to rebooking or refunds if their flight is cancelled. Anyone still looking to book a flight during this time may want to consider alternative airports."
