From the FT
British Airways is facing the threat of new disruption this summer after the Unite union unveiled plans to ballot check-in staff over strike action at London’s Heathrow airport.
The union on Monday said it would ballot 500 staff at the UK’s busiest airport in a dispute over pay — a vote in favour would pave the way for action in July to cause maximum disruption during the summer peak.
BA said an offer of a 10 per cent pay rise for this year had been rejected by staff, and that the union’s plans were “extremely disappointing”.

The 500 staff being balloted represents about half of the Heathrow customer services team. The ballot will run from June 7 to 27.
