EasyJet flights to and from Spain have been cancelled and affected due to cabin crew going on strike in Spain. Passengers flying with EasyJet were warned of significant disruptions as cabin crew across Spain start a three-day strike beginning today. The industrial action, organised by the USO union, is scheduled to last through until Friday 27th June.
The strike stems from ongoing disputes over pay and working conditions, with union representatives saying staff are demanding fairer wages and improved treatment. The strike impacts 657 cabin crew across 21 aircraft, potentially disrupting 18 to 40 flights per day at these bases.
One delayed passenger told the Bulletin: "we have been on flight for ages stationary at the airport due to strike action. At least the doors are open to cool us "
A look at the arrivals board at Palma airport indicated that a number of easyJet flights had either been delayed on cancelled.
Worried travellers posted on social media asking easyJet for more information on the strike and whether their flight would be cancelled. The airline said: “Please continue to check Flight Tracker for further updates. If you're not at the airport yet, please still arrive on-time for your flight as Bag Drop and Boarding times may not be affected.”
