Travelers can expect disabilities at many Italian airports on September 12 due to a strike. Airport employees will stop working for 24 hours on Monday.

Unionized airport workers in Italy have been called on by the CUB and USB unions to walk down their jobs in protest for higher salaries and better contracts. For this reason, travelers must expect delays in operations and short-term changes in flight schedules throughout the day. Flight delays and longer waiting times at security checks are possible. Delayed processes can also occur in the ground handling of aircraft. However, due to a legal regulation in Italy, vacationers do not have to expect that air traffic will come to a complete standstill. This is reported by Check 24.

More strikes announced in Italy

Until the end of September, travelers to Italy must expect strikes again and again. On September 12, for example, ferry traffic on the Tuscan coast will be on strike. Work stoppages also occur on the railways. On September 16, employees of several local transport companies will go on strike. From 27 a.m. on September 3, local public transport in Lombardy is to come to an almost complete standstill for 23 hours, while on September 29 between 10 a.m. and 14 p.m. workers at Bergamo Airport want to go on strike. In addition, a 24-hour strike at Naples Airport was announced for two days later, which will affect passengers on the airlines Easyjet, Ryanair, Malta Air and Volotea.
