LONDON — A court has granted British Airways an injunction to stop a planned strike by cabin crews just hours before they were due to walk out.
The ruling by Britain’s High Court today means that flights over the next few days still will be disrupted, because of contingency plans already put in place by the airline. But BA said it aims to restore a full flying program at Heathrow by the weekend.
The airline has urged the union — which can appeal the judgment — to negotiate an end to the dispute over pay and working conditions that had led to the planned 20-day walkout.
