easyJet Crew Meet in Emergency Assembly and Union Does Not Rule Out Strike

SAPO15 September 2026 at 07:02

easyJet cabin crew meet on Thursday in an emergency general assembly to analyze the labor situation at the low-cost airline. The meeting comes at a time of tension between workers and company management.

The National Union of Civil Aviation Flight Personnel (SNPVAC), which represents the crew members, stated that "all options are on the table" during this assembly. This expression suggests that the possibility of a strike is not excluded.

During the meeting, crew members are expected to debate and decide which measures to take regarding current working conditions. The assembly serves as a forum for workers to express their concerns and define a course of joint action.

easyJet operates in Portugal with routes connecting various European destinations, so any strike could affect thousands of passengers. The union is now awaiting the decision of its members following the conclusion of the assembly.

Why this matters

easyJet passengers in Portugal may face flight cancellations or delays if the union goes ahead with a strike. The emergency meeting follows labor tensions at the company, and the outcome of this assembly will determine whether action measures will be taken that could directly affect travelers.
