Iceland: Air traffic controllers at Keflavik International Airport and Reykjavik Domestic Airport plan strike Dec. 12 and 14
Air traffic controllers at Keflavik International Airport and Reykjavik Domestic Airport, Iceland, plan strike 04:00-10:00 Dec. 12 and 14.
Air traffic controllers at Keflavik International Airport (KEF) and Reykjavik Domestic Airport (RKV) plan to strike 04:00-10:00 Dec. 12 and 14. The action is over stalled salary negotiations.
Unless averted, the strike will likely lead to significant flight disruptions, including delays and cancellations. Disruptions could extend for several hours beyond the scheduled work stoppage as staff resume their duties and deal with any backlogs.
Contact airlines to confirm flight status if booked to fly via KEF and RKV Dec. 12 and 14. Do not check out of accommodations until onward travel is confirmed.
