Hi All,

So far I have been fortunate enough not to travel during any industrial action. However, this week I am due to fly to LHR from MEL - the proposed rolling strikes are a bit of a concern. Does anyone know, or has anyone been in a similar situation that might be able to suggest the length of possible delays? To top it off, I have to do a 5 hours drive to get to the airport and want to leave plenty of time!!!

Thanks

As they are rolling strikes you may miss the delay, but I'd say err on the side of caution, rock up on time if not sooner, hope it helps
