A young woman, supporter of the British Airways cabin crew strike, holds a mask depicting BA CEO Willie Walsh at a picket line at London's Heathrow airport, Sunday March 21, 2010. British Airways cabin crews walked off the job for a second day Sunday, upsetting travel plans for scores of customers, but the airline said its contingency plans were working well and more planes were taking off than expected. The acrimonious dispute with its workers will be financially crippling for BA. Analysts estimated it could cost the airline more than the 63 million pounds ($95 million) that Chief Executive Willie Walsh is trying to save through the changes to workers' pay and conditions.
