GATWICK aircraft refuellers and baggage handlers will strike during the May half term, Unite announced today.

Flights at the transport hub will be cancelled or delayed as a result, said the union.

Redline Oil Services refuellers will strike from May 16 to 20 and May 23 to 27, after rejecting a pay offer of 3.5 per cent over two years.
