Exclamation Airport Strike!!

From MDB...

Passport control staff at Palma airport are going to walk out on strike indefinitely at midnight on Saturday, August 24.
It is feared that the industrial action will cause chaos at passport control for hundreds of thousands of British holidaymakers and visitors from other non-Schengen countries.

IT would appear that airport staff in all departments are either under paid or are part of the we don't like tourists group as they don't seem to strike out of holiday season
