Iberia woes

IBERIA travellers should be very wary over the next few weeks with more strike action promised by the Unions representing the Spanish airline cabin crews.  The latest action last week forced the airline to cancel over 800 flights.  The strikes aim to put pressure on Iberia during collective wage talks.  The new dates for the industrial action are 30 November, 1-2 and 14-18 December.  Within hours of the British Airways partnership (see above) being announced Iberia revealed that for the last quarter consolidated trading losses reached E16.4m versus earnings of E30.4m for the same period 2008. www.iberia.com
