That's my question. Has there been any word about the threatened Brit
Air strike? I don't want to say it too loudly and remind them. Thank you.

Brit Air only has a handful of flights to UK:

As for British Airways:

"Last updated: 18:00, Thursday 14 April 2011 (UK time)

British Airways and Unite, the cabin crew trade union, have had
exploratory talks over the last few weeks and Unite has agreed to halt
any move towards industrial action while talks continue."

Strikes were originally called for the Easter weekend and the day of
the royal wedding, but these appear to have been withdrawn.

This is likely to be a change of dates to avoid public opprobrium
rather than any sign of impending agreement between BA management and
the cabin staff.

Thanks, guys. I was affected by the strike last year, but it worked out
to my advantage! Still, don't want to think about the hassle. I have a
hard enough time sleeping.

Can you believe the volcano was a year ago, too?
