After drivers based in Ireland, Sweden and Belgium, it is the turn of Germans and Dutch to join the movement to strike, which will affect, on Friday, August 10, Ryanair, the airline’s low-cost. More than 250 flights to and from Germany originally planned for Friday have been cancelled by the company. The strikers wish to obtain better contractual conditions and a wage increase.
“We do not see, in Ryanair, the willingness to engage in real wage negotiations,” said Martin Locher, president of the union Vereinigung Cockpit, which ” regrets the consequences [of the strikes] for the passengers, the crew cabins, the ground staff “.
