Dozens of British Airways flights have so far been cancelled on the third day of strike action by cabin crew.

Heathrow has seen the greatest disruption, with 46 flights cancelled out of 101 departures scheduled between midnight and 1100 GMT on Monday.

The joint general secretary of Unite, Tony Woodley, said the strike was "costing the company a fortune", with "hundreds of planes grounded".

But BA said large numbers of cabin crew had reported for work.
