The month of May closes with a strike: the date to be marked on the calendar is. Wednesday, May 28..

By that date, as can be read on the website of the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport, the union USB PRIVATE WORK called an agitation lasting for the duration of 4 hours, 1 to 5 p.m., which will cover the aircrew (i.e., flight attendants and pilots) of the low-cost airline easyJet. On the same day, they will abstain from work - again for 4 hours, from 1 to 5 p.m. - the workers of the company SWISSPORT ITALY operating in the Milan city airport and the employees of AIRPORT HANDLING of the airports of Milan-Linate e Milan-Malpensa.

Strikes, what are passengers' rights in case of cancelled flight?

As usual, we can't help but recommend keeping an eye on the list of flights guaranteed in the event of a strike on Enac's website and also consult the website of the airline with which you will be flying-this will keep you updated about possible inconveniences related to your flight.
