British Airways cabin crew began a four-day strike on Saturday, the second walkout this month. BA said its contingency plans would mean that 75 percent of its customers would be able to fly despite the action, although the Unite Union said the ongoing and increasingly bitter dispute was damaging the airline's finances and reputation. The dispute began because BA wants to save an annual 62.5 million pounds ($92.76 million) to help cope with falling demand, volatile fuel prices and greater competition. The airline said last weekend's three-day stoppage cost the company about 7 million pounds a day.
