What's frustrating is that from what I hear, it's a sympathy strike and not a simple cancellation of services.
Apparently, the in-flight food guys went on strike due to a bout of firings, and then some of their BA chums in other unions threatened to strike too. I guess BA just cut their losses, and allowed the union to avoid the legal penalty of sympathy striking.

Either way... I can imagine that such a large crowd of people will really test the security around Heathrow.
