British Airways (via Sky, BBC) is to cancel a further 1,500 flights (11% of their flights) this month, primarily from Heathrow and Gatwick. British Airways had already removed 10% of scheduled flights between April and October, but said that "regrettably" more reductions were needed. The Department for Transport (DfT) has been advising airlines to trim their summer schedule so they only run the flights that can actually go ahead, due to airport staff shortages.
However, so far the cancellations only appear to be short-haul Europe flights including Netherlands, Greece, Spain, and Palma de Mallorca. No long-haul flights to Orlando appear to be cancelled at this time.
