Why are you confused? The only strike announced as of yesterday is the one of the public sector for November 24. There are no details available yet, so we don't know how this will affect flights. In other words, most probably the only thing that may affect your trip is the weather...

Ah ok, thanks KLouis for the reassurance!

We may have more strikes than most European countries but, fortunately, wild strikes are extremely rare.

I think France and Germany overtook Greece last year Especially in Aviation related strikes.

So GSEE (private sector workers' union) decided for a 24 hour strike on December 8th. That means the ADEDY (public sector) strike on November 24th is not a 'general' one (I guess that means there is less chance we will have huge disruptions to travel, but we'll see).

Also the ferries will remain docked with the sailors on strike until Friday night.

Are there any more strikes on the radar? Specifically, I'm due to fly through ATH tomorrow so that's my main interest!

geo290

Nothing as of now. I am also flying out of ATH tomorrow and just checked the general strike homepage and airport site for any updates. Everything seems to be back to normal for the airport.

Yeah, I'm a little concerned about this too as I'm flying through Greece on Tuesday and Wednesday next week.

That's good news, thanks for that. Fingers crossed it stays that way!

Athens public transport will also see some disruptions on Wednesday and Thursday what it seems, with also ferries affected:

Athens commuters set for major traffic disruptions | News | ekathimerini.com

PS. Anyone has information if this will hopefully be over by Saturday and really only restricted to Wednesday and Thursday? Got a plane to catch to Athens & ferry from Piraeus to Paros on Saturday..

KLouis

Radio Eriwan will gladly answer your question: in principle it's only tomorrow, so you can relax. BUT, the seamen's union ΠΝΟ is known to turn 24 hours strikes into two day-ones and, often, even longer. So I wish you luck with the boat...

Xandrios

TRAINOSE is also on strike tomorrow, in case anyone was thinking about taking a train to/from Athens.

GBobon

are the greek guys competing with their french fellows?
