Air transport strike on Sunday, July 5th, with local public transport, ferries and trains also affected during the month

Italy is facing multiple transportation strikes across various sectors during July, including air travel, public transit, ferries, and rail services. The strikes are organized by several labor unions, such as Cub Trasporti, and are primarily driven by demands for salary increases to match inflation, which they claim has eroded workers' purchasing power by over 20%. These actions include a 24-hour nationwide strike by EasyJet flight crew and ground staff at major airports like Rome, Catania, and Malpensa. Additionally, there are regional strikes planned in Puglia and localized disruptions in cities like Bari, Vicenza, Palermo, and Sardinia. Airline companies are informing passengers about potential flight cancellations, though protected time slots for flights will remain operational. The impact of these strikes is expected to cause significant inconvenience for travelers.
