Actually, I think I hadn't as much missed it as heard that they had voted for two days of strike action and assumed that this meant there would be a two day strike...in late December.
Instead, one of the strike days is the day before we're leaving. Ugh.
At least there's one bright spot: we're flying into Manchester on BMI, so maybe this won't affect us too badly, since BAA doesn't run Manchester Airport. They do run Edinburgh, but if it's totally impossible to get through, we can always take a train. Trains do NOT run across the Atlantic.

Date: 2007-12-31 05:49 pm (UTC)We fly home to Heathrow from Arlanda (Stockholm) on the sixth, which is fortunate; however, as it turns out that first strike has been cancelled.
