According to the National Civil Aviation Workers Union
(SINTAC): “We will have other actions, although on these occasions, the best
thing is to absorb everything that has happened, take stock of everything and
see what we are going to do from [Monday]”, said Pedro Figueiredo, manager from
SINTAC.
Regarding the balance of the three days of strike by Portway
workers, which started at 00:00 on Friday and continued until midnight on
Sunday, the union leader said that, in total, there is a record of the
cancellation of “ 230 flights, at least”, at Lisbon and Porto airports.
“It is clear that the strike has already had its impact and
we do not mean to say that we are happy to cause embarrassment. In fact, the
company did very well in this regard because it managed to organize the
airports and effectively managed to channel funds to be able to organize itself
in this way. We would like it to be the same, the same attitude, towards the
workers”, said Pedro Figueiredo, without advancing with figures related to the
adhesion to the strike.
