Overview
- Handling workers at Groundforce and Menzies have been called to strike at major Spanish airports, including Palma de Mallorca and Barcelona.
- Groundforce actions begin March 27 with rotating partial stoppages across early, mid‑day and late shifts and no fixed end date.
- UGT has scheduled full‑day Menzies strikes for March 28–29 and April 2–6, which align with peak Easter travel dates.
- Disruptions could hit check‑in, boarding, baggage handling, ramp services and refuelling, leading to delays, cancellations and missed connections.
- Operations for airlines such as EasyJet, Air Europa, Air France, Lufthansa, British Airways and American Airlines may be affected, and unions have signaled possible intermittent extensions if no deal is reached.
