Passport control workers at London's Heathrow Airport are expected to go on strike for 23 days during September.
According to a report on the British Guardian, the strike is expected to spread throughout the next month. However, it is currently unclear how the strike will impact flight schedules to and from one of Europe's largest airports.
Reports indicate that the reasons for the strike are related to the working conditions of border control employees. According to British outlets, some workers have already left the profession because they were dissatisfied with their employment conditions.
Strike threats in the UK have become relatively common recently, with several occurring in railway unions, the aviation sector, and others. Yet, some of these strike threats have been canceled at the last minute in recent months.
The strike doesn't mean that all flights to and from Heathrow Airport will be canceled, but there is a possibility that some flights may be affected. Therefore, it's advisable to check the status of your flight in real-time with relevant authorities and official sources.
