Planned strikes by British Airways cabin crew on Christmas Day and Boxing Day have been suspended, the Unite union has said. Employees were due to walk out in a row over pay and conditions. The union said 4,500 workers employed on so-called ‘Mixed Fleet’ contracts - who have joined since 2010 - were on lower pay than other staff. Talks at conciliation service Acas have led to a revised offer which will be put to a ballot of union members.
