April 6 Strike in Greece to Affect Flights, Ferry Services
Airline flights and ferry services in Greece will be disrupted on Wednesday, April 6, due to a 24-hour nationwide strike called by Greece’s largest civil service umbrella union ADEDY and the country’s main private sector union GSEE.
Both the Greek Air Traffic Controllers’ Association and the Pan-Hellenic Seamen’s Federation (PNO) will participate in the general strike.
In an announcement, PNO said that seamen are calling on the government to take action against uninsured labor and establish a permanent system of financial support and protection for the unemployed.
Those who have booked tickets for travel on April 6 are advised to check with their travel agents or contact local port authorities and airports for further information.
With regard to public transportation, until now only the union representing OASA buses has announced a work stoppage on April 6. Buses will operate only between 9am – 9pm.
