TAP Portugal have said that many flights have been cancelled as part of the strike action which includes flights to Lisbon and Oporto.

Airlines have warned people who are booked on flights during the strike action to check their website to make sure their flight has not been cancelled.

EasyJet said: “We regret this situation and are doing our utmost to reduce the inconvenience caused by this action”.

The Foreign Office said on its website: “Public transport within Spain and services at Spanish airports are likely to be significantly disrupted and public demonstrations in city centres may also affect local services on the 14 and 15 November.”

If you are planning to go away in the next couple of days then please check with your airline before going to the airport to make sure that your flight is still available. You also need to find out about your flight cancellation rights.
