The summer of travel chaos is set to continue with staff in airports across Spain voting in favour of strike action. Workers, protesting against conditions and low pay, are planning 24-hour stoppages on 25 days between September and December.
Travellers with holidays booked are urged to check their flights before travelling. Industrial action is scheduled for five days in September, seven in October, two in November and 11 in December.
Spain’s three main workers' unions – USO, CCOO and UGT – are in dispute with airport operator AENA. As a result, car park staff, baggage handlers, security, IT, retail and catering staff have all voted to walk out.
