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

NewsAvia15 September 2026 at 09:07

The Portuguese cabin crew of EasyJet will meet on Thursday, September 17th, in an emergency general assembly in Lisbon, at 10:30 AM, to analyze the labor situation at the airline and decide what measures will be taken.

The National Union of Civil Aviation Cabin Crew (SNPVAC) stated that the working conditions of EasyJet's crew continue to deteriorate in Portugal, highlighting that they have been constantly warning the company about this situation which has changed little or not at all, with very negative impacts on crew members' rights.

When asked by the 'Lusa' news agency about the possibility of a strike being decided, the SNPVAC leadership stated it "will not anticipate what measures will be taken," but made clear that "all options are on the table."

The emergency general assembly has as the sole item on the agenda the analysis of the labor situation at EasyJet and measures to be taken, with the union intending for the airline to resolve the various labor situations it says it has been repeatedly flagging.

Why this matters

Readers traveling with EasyJet in Portugal may be affected by potential delays or flight cancellations if a cabin crew strike materializes. The article follows repeated warnings from SNPVAC about deteriorating working conditions at the company, which remain unresolved.

Buying a used car? These signs can reveal it was already a TVDE

When buying a used car in Portugal, it is important to know how to identify if the vehicle was previously used as a TVDE (Uber, Bolt), as it may have accumulated more wear and tear than it appears. The main signs include high mileage compared to the car's age, inspections more frequent than normal (TVDE vehicles undergo annual inspection from the first year), unusual wear on rear seats and door handles, marks on the windscreen from mounts or cameras, and traces of old stickers. The law approved in 2026 reinforces the identification of these vehicles with anti-fraud elements. A former TVDE vehicle is not necessarily a bad purchase, but the buyer should adjust the price and condition assessment, always requesting the complete documentary history and an independent mechanical evaluation before closing the deal.
