Brits heading to Spain face potential delays as easyJet and Ryanair pilots consider striking

Holidaymakers who are due to head to take a trip to Spain this summer could potentially be hit with delays and cancellations.

The warning comes as the Spanish Union of Airline Pilots (SEPLA) consider more strikes this summer over a dispute with the Spanish Ministry of Transport, Mobility and Urban Agency. The union is currently unhappy with the “minimum services” law that requires pilots to report to work to service at a minimum 90% of scheduled flights even while engaged in labour action to protest pay rates.

According to BirminghamLive, the Secretary General of SEPLA, Javier Fernández said in a news conference that striking could be an option. SEPLA represents pilots working at Ryanair, easyJet as well as Norwegian, Swiftair, Plus Ultra, Jet 2, Eurowings and Evelop.
