CCOO’s final announced partial stoppage ended on 8 August. On 9 August, UGT said it had called off its separate indefinite Swissport strike after reaching an agreement with the company. No further Swissport strike dates have been announced.
Is Palma Airport operating normally?
There is no current Swissport walkout to plan around. Travellers should still check their own flight with the airline because routine delays or baggage issues can occur independently of industrial action.
What travellers should do
- Check the airline or operator’s live status before leaving.
- Allow extra time for check-in, baggage and connections where industrial action is active.
- Keep essential medication, chargers and a change of clothes in hand luggage.
- Do not change a booking unless the operator confirms a cancellation or material schedule change.
