Spanish strike talks break down
Talks aimed a preventing strikes that could ground flights to Spain over Easter and the summer have broken down amid accusations that the Spanish government is not taking the threat seriously.
Reports in the Spanish press said no-one from the government attended the talks with unions and president of the airports authority Juan Ignacio Lema only attended the meeting for 15 minutes.
Unions are threatening to bring Spanish airports to a standstill during peak travel periods unless they receive written guarantees that workers jobs and conditions will be protected following the impending sale of several airports including Barcelona and Madrid.
There are 22 days of industrial action planned which are: April 20, 21, 24, 25 and 30
May 2, 14, 15, 19 and 20
June 13, 23 and 30
July 1, 2, 3, 4, 15 and 31
August 1, 15, 31
