Find out all the information on possible disruptions, such as when and where they might happen. In Europe, labor issues involving employees demanding better wages and working conditions frequently result in strikes. Not all walkouts are publicized at the last minute; others are carefully organized months in advance. This emphasizes how important it is to check for updates before setting out on your journey.

Thankfully, we have included a wealth of strike information below. To find out the places and dates of future walkouts, continue reading. You are guaranteed a new ticket or compensation in the event that your train or flight is canceled or delayed; see our guide for full details.

Here are a few such examples of prearranged strikes:

Spain: As Iberia ground services employees carry out their scheduled strikes from January 5–8, airport disruptions are expected in January. All 29 airports that Spain’s flag carrier serves—including important hubs like Madrid-Barajas and Barcelona-El Prat—will be impacted by this. Fears over outsourcing and working conditions are what sparked the strikes, which could have an impact on flights operated by other IAG group airlines.

Alicante: Due to unsatisfactory working conditions and compensation, security personnel at the Alicante-Elche airport have planned a walkout on January 1–14. This walkout will impact security protocols and baggage handling during designated hours.

London, United Kingdom January is predicted to see tube strikes, starting on January 5 and lasting seven days as a rolling walkout over pay. Travelers should expect delays, especially from January 8–10, when most stations will probably be severely understaffed.

Portugal: On January 2 and 4, there are scheduled train strikes in Portugal. These strikes may stretch into January 3 and 5. Minimum services will be provided even though more than half of the planned trains may be canceled.

France: Because of persistent salary conflicts, walkouts may restart after the holiday season, despite the agreement made by French train unions SudRail and CGT des Cheminots not to strike during Christmas and New Year’s Day.

Germany: The German Train Drivers’ Union (GDL) may go on a five-day walkout from January 7–11, which could result in widespread strikes that affect trains. The problem is made more complicated by a protracted disagreement with Deutsche Bahn on labor conditions, pay, and hours.
