Possible Strike Action: Spanish Baggage Handlers
Friday 29th April and Wednesday 4th May 2005

Ryanair has been advised of possible strike action by Spanish baggage handlers on the Friday 29th April and on Wednesday 4th May 2005.

A contingency plan has been put in place which should allow Ryanair flights to and from Spain to operate on these days. However, we cannot guarantee that baggage handling facilities will be available and consequently we will be unable to accept checked in baggage on all flights into and out Spain on these two days.

Each passenger is permitted to carry one piece of hand luggage to a maximum weight of 10kgs and with dimensions no greater than 55cm x 40cm x 20cm. In order that you and your baggage can be accepted for travel, please ensure that baggage is within the required weight and dimension to carry on board.

Ryanair apologise for the inconvenience caused to customers by the non acceptance of checked baggage on these 2 days, but it is a necessary measure to allow our flights to operate, in and out of Spanish airports.

Any updated information regarding this possible strike action will be available on the homepage of http://www.ryanair.com.

Cheers,

I do not worry about that. They anounce strike actions every now and then. Normally just to call it off within the night before.
The yearly procedure would go as:
* next strike anouncement: coach drivers
* then taxis ( the only ones to be taken seriously)
* handling

It would be a nice change of routine if they really would call a strike.
