British Airways strike: Confusion over cancellations continues
British Airways passengers say they are still struggling to get through to the airline after it wrongly told them their flights were cancelled.

But after BA wrongly said her return flight to London Gatwick on 8 September was cancelled, she was forced to buy another flight with Ryanair.
"It is much less convenient and will cost us more. But BA will only refund the cost of its own flights, not the difference we've paid," She Said .
It means she will miss her friend's wedding breakfast and have to change car hire companies, pushing up her costs. In total she stands to lose £500.

Some customers received two conflicting emails on Saturday. The First told them their flights had been cancelled and that they should rebook or seek refunds. The second said their original flights would go ahead as planned.
