Holidaymakers from the UK face further flight delays and disruption from the latest wave of strikes confirmed by Spanish cabin crew working for two of the biggest low-cost airlines. Staff working out of selected Spanish airports are preparing for a new series of walkouts in disputes over pay and conditions.
Ryanair cabin crew will strike July 12-15, July 18-21 and July 25-28 at 10 airports across Spain, according to the USO and SICTPLA unions. Bases at Barcelona, Palma de Mallorca and Malaga are likely to be affected by action
The USO union has asked the Spanish Government to mediate in the situation and called on all Spanish Ryanair workers to support the strike. Strikes in June caused more than 1,000 delays in Spain and some action coincided with easyJet strikes.
