Jet2 has issued an alert for British tourists travelling to and from Spain.

The firm acknowledged that a transport workers strike today (Monday, October 28) could cause disruption.

The airline communicated that the industrial action is expected to cause disruptions across multiple Spanish locales and advised passengers to ‘allow plenty of time to arrive’ at airports.

Holidaymakers are being alerted that the airline’s staff will communicate any necessary alterations to transfer pick-up times.

Jet2 maintains that all flights are currently set to depart as scheduled but encourages travellers to stay updated via its website for any changes.

In a statement, Jet2 announced: “We have been made aware that there is a Spanish transport workers strike taking place on Monday, October 28, 2024. The strike is expected to affect transport across many Spanish destinations, so please ensure you allow plenty of time to arrive at your departure airport.”

The airline added: “If you are travelling on a Jet2holiday and we need to make a change to your transfer pick up time, our resort teams will make contact directly and are working to minimise any impact to your journey. All Jet2.com flights are currently planned to operate on time, should this change, we will update you on a flight-by-flight basis, as soon as possible.”

Furthermore, Jet2 assured customers, saying: “Our dedicated UK-based operations teams are always working hard behind the scenes to minimise any delays and rest assured we’ll have you on your was as soon as we can,” reports Birmingham Live.

In Majorca, Bus drivers will strike as part of the nationwide action over a lack of agreement in respect of arrangements for early and voluntary retirement.

The Balearic Government has set a 60 percent minimum service for TIB buses. Palma EMT buses are expected to operate at 50 percent.

It comes just weeks after UK tourists were warned they could face major disruptions as unions representing ground handling staff called for strike action in Spain over pay and working conditions.

The unions claimed several agreements had been breached that seriously affected employees’ working conditions, as formalised in a letter to the Association of Airport Ground Handling Services Companies (ASEATA).
