Strikes by staff at Ryanair and Brussels Airlines over pay and working conditions force the cancellation of dozens of flights in Europe

The European Transport Workers' Federation says it expects"the chaos the aviation sector is currently facing will only grow over the summer as workers are pushed to the brink".

The strikes are adding more headaches to passengers and the aviation sector, which has grappled with staff shortages as it struggles to recruit people after massive layoffs during the Covid pandemic. Ryanair could only guarantee 30-40 percent of its scheduled flights at the airport, said a spokesperson for Brussels South Charleroi Airport.

The Ryanair strike had very little impact in Portugal and none in Spain where no flights where no flights were cancelled.Spain's transport ministry on Thursday ordered Ryanair to operate 73 percent to 82 percent of flights over the strike period to maintain minimum services.
