Five Day Airport Strike
« on: June 15, 2016, 03:03:03 PM »
I hope this isn't true. Crazy if it is and a great way of losing money from tourism.

I can see their point but inconveniencing the people that bring in much needed cash into their country doesn't seem the way, because no matter how much we love the place, travellers will not put up with this for long.
We arrive on Monday 20th so will send as much info as poss.
I've got a feeling that luggage collection will be the area that's hit.

Good news - In the Corfu group in FB somebody posted that the strike has been cancelled for next week by the union OSYPA :)
Life is good ;)
