Labor-managment warfare continues at British Airways (BA) with the union representing cabin crew poised for more strikes.  The Unite union is recommending its members reject the airline's latest offers. A strike–or series of strikes–could begin after May 17.  Speculation centers around a 20-day walkout, or a wave of 5-day strikes.

BA struggled through strikes in March, managing to maintain many flights using volunteer crew and chartered jets.

If strikes are announced travelers can check the British Airways website frequently for updates and information on rescheduling.
