MADRID (Reuters) -Easyjet's cabin crews based in Spain will go on strike for three days beginning on June 25 to demand higher wages, the USO union said on Tuesday, as the holiday season gets underway.
The airline intends to operate normally during those days, a spokesperson said, adding the company would do everything possible to minimise the impact.
In its statement, the union said 657 flight attendants who are based in Alicante, Barcelona, Malaga and Palma de Mallorca, could be involved in the action.
EasyJet cabin crews earn much less in Spain than in other countries, according to the union. "The strike's goal is to level the crews' working and wage conditions in Spain with the ones at other bases of the company in Europe," it said.
Regulation in Spain forces airline workers to provide minimum services during labour action, limiting any disruption.
