Release date: 15/01/2021

In response to the Government announcement on the closure of travel corridors to the UK, BALPA General Secretary Brian Strutton said: 
 
“This is yet another huge blow to the travel industry and UK aviation with no indication from the Government of any support or a plan to help the sector though this crisis. 
 
“These are dire times and we need a clear plan of action and a proper package of support or the UK aviation industry will not be there to support the post COVID-19 recovery.”
