Hello friends,
My good friend is traveling to Italy for the first time, landing in Florence on September 6th. She is flying United. We just learned about the upcoming airline strikes that day. It seems like the strikes will primarily affect European airlines - but any tips/advice? Or just general expectations to prepare for? Thanks everyone!
The general window I saw for the non specific European airlines was starting at noon on the 6th for I believe 4 hours. I arrive before that on American so I am hopeful.
Any idea on how long the strike and related disruption is expected to be? Is this a limited-time, predictable (even routine) event, or more of an "anything goes, who knows how long" event?
(I'll be there starting 16 September - will it be only a faint memory when I get there, or an ongoing crisis?)
it might go on for 5 min after (if someone's watch isn't correct), but THIS strike won't last until the 16th......the scioperi are very organized and limited to particular times and places.....
expectations to prepare for......if you are speaking of airlines that might be running flights within Italy, the longer distance trains might sell out quicker.....
