More travel chaos ahead as strike action looms.....

Just when you thought the travel chaos at Britain’s airports was as bad as it gets, things are set to get worse for passengers of budget airline Ryanair, whose staff are set to walk out.

Cabin crew for the carrier based in Spain are scheduled to go on strike between 24th June and 30th June and again on the first two days of July. Unions advise that staff are taking action over working conditions and pay. The airline doesn’t think any strikes will go ahead as a collective agreement with CCOO.

Scandinavian Airlines System pilots in Sweden have also announced a round of strike action set to begin at the end of this moth after negotiations broke up in failure. 

Swedish pilots' union SPF advised that as no agreement had been reached, flight deck crew will take industrial action in Norway, Sweden and Denmark from 29th June. It is understood that around 900 pilots would strike affecting approximately 250 flights each day across the airline’s route network.
