Unions representing security staff at Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernandez airport have stated that as of yet the management have not entered into negotiations with staff, and so their strike action will continue, with an intensified schedule that also sees strikes during the busy Christmas period.
The strikes take place for an hour in the morning, and an hour in the afternoon, and affect passenger flows as well as luggage and goods within the terminal.
Passengers are advised to arrive in plenty of time due to delays passing through security as a result.
