British Airways to cut 10,000 flights from Heathrow

British Airways would make further cancellations up to the end of October and tweak its winter schedule, the airline said on Monday, following Heathrow airport’s decision to cap capacity to tackle widespread disruption.

Sky News earlier reported that the IAG-owned carrier’s total capacity for winter schedule until the end of March would be reduced by 8% and impact around 10,000 flights.

“We are making adjustments to our short-haul schedule for the next two months… We will need to make some further cancellations up to the end of October,” a British Airways spokesperson told Reuters in an emailed statement.
