Cabin crews launch a three-day strike over the New Year holiday over pay, in some cases below Belgium’s legal minimum. Belgium-based Ryanair cabin crews have started a three-day strike, resulting in dozens of the low-cost Irish carrier’s flights being grounded and affecting thousands of passengers. The strike came on Friday as the cost of living crisis continued, increasing labour strife across Europe that has disrupted the festive period. Ryanair employees in Belgium have already gone on strike several times this year to demand that the country’s labour laws be fully applied, grounding aircraft. The labour unions have notably accused Ryanair of illegally pressuring staff in Belgium to work from time to time in other sites across Europe, particularly in its home base Dublin, where the airline suffers employee shortages.
