The Spanish unions have confirmed that a general strike affecting transport workers will take place in Spain between 00.00 (Spanish local time) and 23.59 (Spanish local time) on Wednesday 29 September 2010.  This strike will potentially affect the movement of all flights to and from Spain and the Spanish Islands.

Airlines are continuing to work closely with the Spanish Government to understand the restrictions being imposed on flights and will endeavour to minimise the impact of the strike action on airline customers.

All flights operating to and from Spain and the Spanish Islands are likely to incur delays on 29 September and it may be necessary to cancel some flights at short notice.  

Customers booked and wishing to travel to/from Spain on 29 September are advised to check the website for the latest flight information prior to departing for the airport.  If travelling from Spain, please note that strike action will affect all public transport, so please allow additional time getting to the airport.  Customers are also advised to check-in online and where possible, to travel with hand baggage only.
