The chief executive of British Airways, Willie Walsh, has turned down an annual bonus of shares worth £334,000, the airline has said.

Mr Walsh's salary remains at £735,000, although he earned £674,000 last year after voluntarily giving up July's pay as part of cost-cutting measures.
The Unite union, which is locked in a dispute with BA, said there would have been uproar if he had taken his bonus.

But the Unite union, which represents BA cabin crew, says the main outstanding grievance now is the removal of travel concessions for those who went on strike
