Virgin Atlantic Strike Dates

Posted on June 25th, 2011. Written by bookingbusinesstravel.

The pilots strike dates will be during a short window of time.

One week notice must be given and strikes must begin within four weeks of the ballot announcement

Thus at today, Thursday 30th June, the Virgin Atlantic pilot strikes will have to occur between: Monday 7th July and Tuesday 19th July

If you have a flight booking, there is nothing you can do until a date is announced. Unless you have a fully flexible refundable ticket, you will lose cancellation fees etc if you choose to rebook on another airline.

Also of course, a strike may even be avoided.

When, and if, strike dates are announced, the airline will attempt to provide you an alternative flight or a refund.

We’ll monitor the situation and update you, but for now, there is little you can do but wait.
