Spain holidaymakers warned of huge strikes at 17 airports, lasting months

UK travellers heading to Spain between now and Easter have been warned of strikes at some of the country's busiest airports. Workers with Swissport have called a series of 24-hour walkouts after negotiations that have been taking place since March 2022 failed.

The industrial action will happen every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, starting next Monday, February 27, and continuing until April 13. The unions have been engaged in an eight-year dispute with Swissport over working conditions, the Mirror reports.

A spokesperson said: “This is the reality faced by the workers of Swissport Handling and for which it has been decided to say ENOUGH. We will not allow workers to have to give up the improvements they have been waiting for for years.”
