Portuguese cabin crew working with Ryanair are planning to strike in August over pay and working conditions, according to a domestic union.
The National Union of Civil Aviation Flight Personnel (SNPVAC) said the low-cost airliner had failed to uphold an agreement in place since late 2018 that included terms on holiday pay, 22 days of annual leave per year, and full compliance with Portugal’s parental law.
In a statement, SNPVAC said the cabin crew had “no other choice” but to strike over the conditions.
The industrial action comes as Ryanair pilots in Ireland and the United Kingdom are holding ballots on possible strike action in August.
