British Airways & Virgin Atlantic Pause Ticket Sales Due To UK Strikes

Following UK Strikes, All customers looking to purchase inbound flights to London’s Heathrow airport cannot do so because of an upcoming Christmas Border Force staff strike.
News report shows Border Force has requested that all airports expect passenger numbers on strike days to be above 70-80% of 2019 levels to “suppress demand” and stop selling tickets.
This comes after the government denied 75% of Border Force’s union members a 2% pay raise increase. This rejection was followed by the union’s warning for airlines to suppress demand to wallow for better management of the flow of people through border control when workers execute the first walkout on Friday, 23 December.
