LONDON (Reuters) - British Airways pilots began a 48-hour strike on Monday, grounding most of the airline’s flights and disrupting thousands of travelers’ plans in unprecedented industrial action over a pay dispute.

LONDON – British Airways pilots began a 48-hour strike on Monday, grounding most of the airline’s flights and disrupting thousands of travelers’ plans in unprecedented industrial action over a pay dispute.

The British Airline Pilots Association last month gave the airline notice of three days of industrial action in September, in what is the first ever strike by BA pilots.BALPA has said that British Airways should share more of its profits with its pilots. BA has said the strike action is unjustifiable as its pay offer was fair.

“It is time to get back to the negotiating table and put together a serious offer that will end this dispute.”
