Overview

• Italy’s first actions land on September 6: easyJet cabin crew at Catania and Swissport staff handling Catania flights at Milan Linate plan 24‑hour walkouts, while Pisa and Florence airport workers will strike for four hours confirmed by the transport ministry.
• Wizz Air says a third‑party union action will affect its Italian operations on September 6 between 12:00 and 16:00 CEST and the airline plans to minimise the impact.
• Further Italian disruption is slated later in the month, with Milan Linate and Malpensa handling staff set to strike on September 26 though reports differ on whether it lasts four or 24 hours, and Cagliari airport security staff also planning a 24‑hour stoppage.
• France’s majority air traffic controllers’ union SNCTA has called a strike for September 18, a move that could affect a large number of flights including overflights across French airspace.
• Spain and Portugal face recurring ground‑handling disputes, with Azul Handling staff in Spain staging 5–9 a.m. actions on Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays across major airports and SIMA‑represented Menzies workers in Portugal striking on multiple September dates at hubs including Lisbon, Porto, Faro, Madeira and the Azores.
