Strikes at Spanish airports will cause major problems today for any inbound travellers to the country, British airways has confirmed it has cancelled several flights to spain as a result of the strike. Whilst Ryanair has cancelled all domestic flights and many International flights in and out of Spain. Among the casualties will be Manchester United fans travelling to Valencia for tonight’s Champions League clash.
Easyjet has also been forced to cancel many of its flights but stressed they had written to customers in advance advising them to change their travel plans. All travellers should check their airlines website to see the status of their flight before travelling to the airport.
The strike is being carried out by Unions UGT and CCOO who are protesting at proposed wage cuts, new labour laws making it much easier for the airport to hire and fire workers and a raise in the retirement age from 65 to 67.
