Ryanair flight warning as MORE cabin crew to go on strike next week
RYANAIR passengers could face more problems next week as another union has confirmed they will strike.
Unions representing staff and cabin crew for Ryanair in Italy have called a 24-hour strike on June 25.
This coincides with walkouts the budget airline is facing the same day in other parts of Europe.
Italian unions FILT-CGIL and UIL Trasporti said they were seeking improved pay and conditions after staging a four-hour stoppage earlier in June.
Ryanair workers in Spain and Portugal have announced strikes for late June and the Italian unions said they also expected stoppages in France and Belgium.
Spanish union SITCPLA said: “We’re coordinating our actions with European counterparts.”

The Spanish strikes will take place over six days from June 24 to June 26 and June 30 to July 2.
USO’s general secretary of the Ryanair section Lidia Arasanz, said, according to : “We have to resume mobilisation so that the reality of our situation is known and Ryanair is forced to abide by basic labour laws.”
While UK Ryanair crew have not voted to strike, it will affect the thousands of Brits hoping to head to Europe this summer.
