Jet2 has warned passengers travelling to Portugal that they could face “extended wait times” due to strike action by Portuguese immigration officers over Easter. Staff will be walking out from April 6 until April 10, which will impact holidaymakers jetting off over the bank holiday weekend.
In a statement released on their website, Jet2 said: “We wanted to let you know that industrial strike action is taking place from 06th April until 10th April 2023 supported by the Portuguese Border Control Services.
“This strike action will affect both Faro (Algarve) and Funchal (Madeira) airports and during this time the processing of both departing and arriving customers through border control will be impacted and slower than usual.”
