At Barcelona El-Prat Airport, groundhandling workers strike the second day. The Spanish agency EFE announced on Wednesday that 18 flights had been cancelled so far. Passengers may anticipate difficulties.
They strike Groundforce personnel liable for ground handling, passenger briefing, boarding and airport coordination. They accuse the employer of being passive towards a "serious deterioration" in occupational safety.
Groundforce operates both home and global flights, carriers specified as LOT, Lufthansa, Air Europa, KLM, Air France and Qatar Airways.
