British Airways canceled most flights on September 9th and 10th due to a pilot strike over a pay dispute. The airline had offered an 11.5% pay raise over three years, which was rejected by the British Airline Pilots Association. The strike led to significant disruptions, with the airline advising passengers not to come to the airport and offering refunds or rebooking options. The strike is estimated to cost British Airways $50 million per day, with another strike planned for September 27th.
