Title: Stansted Baggage Handlers Strike
Post by: Ray1951 on March 29, 2012, 18:36:22 PM
It never fails somewhere during the holiday period there will be a strike somewhere to upset the traveller.  This time it's the baggage handlers at Stansted.  This will really slow things up for anyone flying out from there.  Check this out on Yahoo News.

I'm no lady I want to swear. Swissport the company for whom the striking baggage handlers work don't handle Easyjet baggage so maybe a hope for Easyjet travellers to Dalaman? I'd be interested to hear, we're due to flight out of Stansted on the May and June Bank holidays......

You can always tell when there's a Bank Holiday coming. At least one of the unions involved in transport will announce that they're striking. **nkers!!

Coupled with POSSIBLE tanker drivers' strike, which if it happens will fall during Easter - GRRRRRRRR.

The Tanker Driver's union have given an assurance that they won't strike over Easter.
