The complicated summer of low-cost airlines continues: Ryan Air, Volotia E EasyJet Millions of their passengers are waiting for a new one Strike il June 25 Number of pilots and flight attendants from Italy, Spain, Portugal, France and Belgium. This is even worse for Belgium: there are three days of strikes: including June 24, 25 and 26. Malta Air E Crowlink. During this period, companies cut some routes due to staff shortages. A paradoxical situation: the goal is to cancel flights when there is a high demand and recover from two years of epidemics: a crisis in which the demand and supply of work in the sector is clearly misaligned before a steady increase.

Protests in Italy were declared by Filth Cgil and Uiltrasporti, who, after the June 8 strike last year, gave the firm impression that it was impossible to start a dedicated discussion on issues that had plagued the crew for months.

Three-day strike

“The June 25 protest – to inform the two trade unions – is part of a concerted mobilization at the European level. Pilots and flight attendants from Spain, Portugal, France and Belgium will be absent from work on the same days that the strike is called in our country, so there is a possibility of inconvenience in the connections operated by the Ryanair Group, especially in the striking countries.

Antitrust fine

The Antitrust Authority fined Ryanair a total of ,000 200,000 for a dispute settlement agreement with Codacons, recognizing the unfair trade practices of the Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR), which was initiated to protect the rights of passengers. This was announced by the Consumer Association itself, against which the Authority imposed a fine of യൂറോ 5,000.

In a decision previewed by Adnkronos, Antitrust observes, “Ryanair did not provide clients with sufficient information about the sources of funding for the ADR and the procedures for implementing it, however it avoids publication.

These are, of course, relevant and essential profiles for clients “. In addition, the document reads,” Failure to indicate the procedures for implementing Adr and the controls that govern them, significantly omit information because it does not allow us to understand and adequately evaluate the actual features of the service provided. Its convenience “.

Kodacons immediately responded: “Antitrust, which ‘confirms’ millions of Ryan Air passengers’ were’ cheated ‘by the agreement signed with Kodacons, has agreed to pay 5,000 euros for the embarrassment of the failure. It will be handed over to President Roberto Rusticelli, who dared to challenge and apologize for hurting him.

At present, the Consumer Affairs Association declares, “We will no longer appeal to the Public Prosecutor’s Office against the misuse of office documents by FederConsumori’s and former ‘associate’ Rusticelli. Will ask back.

At the same time, Kodacons adds, “Thanks to Antitrust this summer, millions of Italian passengers flying with Ryanair will be without that extra protection for interruptions in flights given in the airline’s conciliation agreement with Kodacons.”
