☆ EasyJet's Portugal cabin staff start five-day strike, threaten more walkouts
  + stars: | 2023-07-21 | by ( Sergio Goncalves | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
LISBON, July 21 (Reuters) - Almost 100% of EasyJet's (EZJ.L) cabin staff in Portugal walked out for five days on Friday and the union threatens with more strikes in the coming months if the company keeps rejecting the raises they demand. Penarroias did not rule out more strikes in the coming months if the talks with the company do not progress. "We will see with the union member whether the strike would happen in August, September, October or at the end of the year," he told Reuters. He said "his fellow French, German and Swiss cabin staff, who earn between 70% and 100% more than the Portuguese, only got better wages after going on strike several times". The Portuguese law protecting consumers forces cabin staff to assure 96 flights during the five days.

☆ Portuguese airline TAP running reduced service as two-day strike kicks off

LISBON, Dec 8 (Reuters) - Portuguese flag carrier TAP is running a reduced service as its cabin crew stage a two-day strike to demand higher salaries and better working conditions. The strike, called by the national SNPVAC union representing cabin crew staff for Dec. 8-9, had already forced TAP to cancel 360 flights. The airline said it was only operating the "minimum services" decreed by a court. SNPVAC president, Ricardo Penarroias, told Lusa news agency the majority of TAP cabin crew had decided to walk out but said they were still available to negotiate with the airline to avoid further strikes until the end of January. The ailing airline, 72.5% controlled by the Portuguese state, was saved by a 3.2 billion euro rescue plan approved by Brussels.
☆ TAP cabin staff to strike on Dec. 8-9, plan more walkouts until end-Jan

LISBON, Dec 6 (Reuters) - Cabin staff at Portugal's flag carrier TAP will go on strike on Thursday and Friday to demand higher wages after pay cuts under the airline's recovery plan, the SNPVAC union said, adding it would schedule more walkouts later. The 25% salary cut we suffered due to the company's restructuring plan is unacceptable, especially given current inflation levels," SNPVAC head Ricardo Penarroias told Reuters on Tuesday. The union is also demanding the company unfreeze pay progression, and respect maternity leave and rest periods. TAP, which is under an EU-approved 3.2-billion euro bailout plan, has also advised passengers to reschedule their bookings. The plan involves downsizing its fleet, cutting more than 2,900 jobs and reducing wages of most workers by up to 25%.
