Limited trains will serve Gatwick Airport next week due to planned national rail strikes.

Thousands of RMT union members, working for Network Rail and a number of train operators, held three days of walkouts in late June in a dispute over pay, conditions and potential job losses.

Strike days on Thursday, August 18 and Saturday, August 20 have been announced across Network Rail and 14 operators, including Govia Thameslink Railway, which runs Southern, Thameslink and Gatwick Express services.
