The SNPNC-FO union, representing French hostesses and stewards at Spanish low-cost airline Vueling, has announced plans to go on strike from May 8 to 12. This follows a lack of progress in negotiations with management and dissatisfaction with working conditions.
The union submitted a strike notice on April 29, hoping for a response from management. However, the company has been uncooperative and even sent threatening emails to employees. The CGT union has also joined the efforts of SNPNC-FO in their fight for fair labor practices.
The timing of the strike coincides with the Ascension long weekend, a busy travel period. In spring of 2023, SNPNC-FO went on strike leading to numerous flight cancellations. Currently, they are waiting for management to reach out in order to sit down and negotiate.
Vueling operates a network of 248 routes, including 42 in France, and carried over 34 million passengers in 2023. Founded in Spain in 2004 as part of the IAG group which includes British Airways and Iberia, Vueling is known for its focus on low-cost travel but faces challenges with its employees and negotiations with union representatives despite its success.
