Latest known position

The source announcement was reviewed on: 15 Oct 2026, 09:20 UTC. Sources disagree.

The latest source-backed change says:

Unite confirmed on 13 October 2026 that Leeds Bradford air traffic controllers' 16–18 October strike was suspended pending a ballot. A separate ballot for hourly paid staff remained unresolved, so airport-wide shutdown is not confirmed. Further controller action from 23 October to 2 November depends on rejection of the offer. No individual flight cancellation can be inferred.
