A series of disputes over working conditions in the airline sector is causing misery for UK holiday-makers.

Possible strike action by staff at firms including British Airways and Ryanair, as well as a number of UK airports, has put hundreds of flights at risk of cancellation.

The disruption has led this year's holiday season to be described as a "summer of strikes".
