British Airways cancels flight BA254 from Bridgetown, Barbados, to London Heathrow after an alleged incident involving crew members drinking alcohol before work. Multiple reports say the flight is cancelled on Sunday, affecting passengers scheduled to travel between the Caribbean and the UK. The reports state that up to 336 passengers are impacted.
According to the accounts, the crew members allegedly consume alcohol at or from a hotel setting before the flight, with descriptions including time spent in a hotel bar and reference to a session involving vodka and beer. The reports frame the action as a result of the incident, though they do not provide detailed findings or outcomes beyond the cancellation.
The coverage is consistent that the disruption centres on BA254 and that the cancellation prevents passengers from completing their planned journey to Heathrow. The reports focus on the alleged alcohol-related behaviour and the resulting operational decision by the airline.
