Cancellation, delays and hours-long queues are already having an unavoidable impact on summer travel across Europe.

 

Sweeping job and pay cuts during the pandemic are behind much of the disruption. But it isn’t just passengers that have been affected by staff shortages as now, unions across the industry are calling for strikes over working conditions.

 

Europe’s low cost airlines are likely to be among those worst affected by the upcoming staff walkouts.

 

Last minute cancellations and general disorganisation at easyJet have even led unions to claim crew members face a “serious safety risk,” unwillingly working on days off to prevent further disruption.

 

So what do we know so far about the airlines and airports which could be impacted by strikes this summer?
