Rome Transport and Airline Strikes Hit Service Today, With Limited Guaranteed Windows

Labor actions over staffing, workplace conditions, union recognition trigger guaranteed-service plans.

Overview

  • Atac workers are staging a 24-hour strike in Rome, with local transport guaranteed only from start of service to 8:29 and from 17:00 to 19:59.
  • Metro service is reduced on lines A and B, the C line is running regularly, and the Termini–Centocelle route has fewer trips, according to city mobility updates this morning.
  • EasyJet crews will stop from 13:00 to 17:00 and Volotea staff are out for 24 hours, creating risks of delays and cancellations.
  • ENAC says flights are protected during 07:00–10:00 and 18:00–21:00 and for routes such as island connections, territorial continuity, intercontinental and public-utility services.
  • Stations that remain open may lack escalators, elevators and ticket offices, and students have launched nationwide demonstrations in dozens of cities.
