Spain: Iberia Airlines ground staff to strike September 30-November 18

Event

The UGT union called on all Iberia Airlines ground staff to go on strike starting from Monday, September 30, until Monday, November 18, to demand improved working conditions. Should the strike go ahead as planned, significant flight disruptions, such as delays and cancelations, are to be expected across Spain. The strike may impact baggage handling, check-in service, and aircraft maintenance. The strikes may also affect Iberia's partner airlines, which include Vueling, American Airlines, Air China, Turkish Airlines, Latam, and Avianca.
