Summer holiday travel chaos as Ryanair cancels 600 flights over cabin crew strike in Belgium, Portugal and Spain that will affect almost 50,000 passengers

Workers in Belgium, Portugal and Spain will walkout on Wednesday July 25 and Thursday July 26 in a move that will affect 50,000 passengers.

It is expected to cause chaos for anyone flying to or from those three countries next week and comes days after separate industrial action by Ryanair’s Irish based pilots.

The Irish based airline has apologised for the disruption and said it had contacted the affected passengers, saying that if customers had not already received an email or SMS text, they should expect to travel as scheduled.
