Saturday, September 7, 2024 an air transport strike is planned. The workers of Ita Airways and Wizz Air, two of the largest operators in Italy, will join the strike. The strike will last 4 hours and will take place in the afternoon. The staff of Ita Airways are protesting against the agreement signed by the Cisl in July, which according to the members of the strike, “penalizes all the crews that are not employed for the routes to the USA, London and Paris, as well as being harmful to the majority of the company’s workers”. The employees of Wizz Air, on the other hand, are protesting against the worsening of working conditions. Let’s now find out the timetables, the guaranteed flights and how to obtain reimbursements in the event of a flight cancellation.

Both Ita Airways and Wizz Air staff will go on strike from 13:00 to 17:00 on 7 September 2024. The strike will therefore last a total of 4 hours. ENAC (National Civil Aviation Authority) emphasizes that the arrival at their destination of all domestic flights in progress at the time of the strike’s start must be ensured. The departure of all flights scheduled at times prior to the start of the strike and delayed for reasons beyond the control of the parties is also guaranteed, as well as the arrival at their destination at national airports of international flights with an estimated time no later than thirty minutes before the start of the strike itself. A list of guaranteed flights, drawn up by ENAC, is available at this link.
How to get a refund

Airlines will have to offer an alternative flight to passengers who will suffer inconvenience due to the strike, as required by the Community Regulation. Furthermore, since the strike is not considered an extraordinary situation, passengers whose flights will be delayed or cancelled will be able to request a refund of their ticket. To request it, it is necessary to keep it and fill out the European form, available at this link. Here are the pages dedicated to refunds for Ita Airways and Wizz Air.
