Transport/Airport Strike?

We are currently scheduled to fly to France on March 17. Our plans may change as there are reports of significant rolling transport strikes in France beginning March 7.

We are considering changing plans and visiting Spain. However, I noted that there are reports of air traffic control strikes in Spain as well, but perhaps only on Mondays?

Can anyone provide insight on impact of current or currently planned strikes on transport / flights in Spain? Thanks!

The partial strike will take place on March 7, 14, 21 and 29 at the airports of A Coruña, Alicante-Elche, Castellón, Cuatro Vientos, El Hierro, Fuerteventura, Ibiza, Jerez, Lanzarote, La Palma, Lleida, Murcia, Sabadell, Seville, Valencia and Vigo, from 16:00 to 19:00h. it´s not a general strike. Spanish Government privatized 16 control towers and the strike is against this measure, that they claim reduces operativeness.
