SriLankan Airlines advisory on Heathrow strike action

4 August 2019 11:08 pm

SriLankan Airlines has made preparations to minimise inconvenience to its valued passengers at London’s Heathrow Airport that may occur as a result of the strike action planned by the ground staff of Heathrow Airport Limited (HAL) on the 5th and 6th of August, SriLankan Airlines said. “SriLankan does not envisage any cancellation of its flights at this time and will operate as per its regular schedule,” it said in a statement.

SriLankan has reinforced its own operations for passengers and cargo at both the arrival and departure terminals of Heathrow, with additional employees on standby. However, the areas most likely to be affected include security screening, which are operated by HAL and do not come under the purview of SriLankan.

SriLankan Airlines regrets any inconvenience to its valued passengers due to circumstances that are entirely beyond its control, and will do everything in its power to minimise this inconvenience.
