Italy: Ryanair staff to strike nationwide July 17

Ryanair pilots and cabin crew to strike nationwide in Italy July 17; flight cancelations and delays likely.

Warning

Event

The FILT union representing Ryanair (FR) pilots and cabin crew has called for a nationwide strike July 17. The strike has been called to demand improved salaries and working conditions.

Unless averted, the work stoppage will likely prompt significant disruptions to Ryanair flights serving Italy. Resulting cancelations and delays could extend several hours after the strike ends as carriers move to reposition aircraft and resolve any passenger backlogs.

Advice

Confirm flights if booked to fly on Ryanair to or from Italy July 17. Do not check out of accommodations until onward travel is confirmed. Consider alternate arrangements for critical travel.
