Portuguese union representatives have said the strikes are motivated by below-par labour conditions, including disciplinary processes and threats for not reaching in-flight sales objectives. Asked whether there will be flight cancellations, Michael O’Leary said: “It depends on how many disruptions there are. We can’t rule it out but it will be small scale.” Ryanair had scheduled 90 flights to and from Portugal for Thursday, he said. O’Leary also announced details of Laudamotion’s summer schedule. which will involve a total of 21 aircraft operating from 9 cities in Austria, Switzerland and Germany from June. <br/>
