LY hasn't been on strike by itself for many years. Previous strikes in recent years were at the airport and not at the airline.

Would (Amex) Travel Insurance cover it?
The protocol is that you should get the next available seat on a flight that will go out but as strikes create backlogs (especially in the high season of mid-August), the next available seat can be quite a few days later.
Strikes are considered "Force Major" and insurance usually does not cover them.
