Air transport strikes, about 50 cancellations at Fiumicino

There are about fifty flights departing preemptively canceled today, at Fiumicino airport, due to a series of strikes affecting air transport. At the Roman airport, however, for the moment, there are no operational criticalities or queues of passengers at the information desks due to the preventive communication on strikes, which has given way to the airlines to reschedule flights and take action to reprotect passengers on the first useful connections. Among the agitations, the one called by the Cobas of 4 hours, from 13 to 17, of the Enav employees of Rome and Milan, the national one of the handling sector, from 12 to 16, called by Filt Cgil, Fit Cisl, Uiltrasporti and Ugl Trasporto Aereo, and for 24 hours by Cub Trasporti; and again the 24-hour national USB strike of air transport and related industries. The staff of some airlines, such as Vueling, and the commercial and administrative staff of Emirates and American Airlines also cross their arms. In Fiumicino Filt Cgil, Fit Cisl, Uiltrasporti and Ugl Trasporto aereo organized, with union flags in sight, a 4-hour garrison outside Terminal 3.
Following the agitation proclaimed by ENAV air traffic controllers and handling companies, the company Ita Airways informed users, from its website, that, from 12 to 17, there could be some changes to its flight schedule, and that it was forced to cancel, on the entire network, 116 flights, between national and international.
Ita Airways has activated "an extraordinary plan to limit the inconvenience of passengers, rebooking on the first available flights as many travelers as possible affected by cancellations. 60% will be able to fly on the same day today."
