The move is due to a planned 10-day strike by some Heathrow security workers in the Unite union.

British Airways is cancelling around 32 flights a day to and from Heathrow Airport at the start of the Easter holidays.

Workers at Terminal 5, used by British Airways and those who check cargo, will take part in the action. BA has been told by the airport to reduce its schedule on those days by 5% and has stopped selling tickets.In a statement, the airline said: "We've regrettably had to make a small number of adjustments to our schedule.

A Heathrow spokesperson said: "We will not let these unnecessary strikes impact the hard-earned holidays of our passengers."
