Rome: Aviation Services ground-handling strike at Fiumicino and Ciampino on Monday 14 December 2026 (24 hours)

Ground-handling staff of Aviation Services at Rome Fiumicino and Ciampino airports strike for 24 hours on Monday 14 December 2026, called by FAST-Confsal and registered with the transport ministry on 8 October.

What to expect: check-in, baggage handling and aircraft turnarounds for the airlines Aviation Services handles may be slower, and some flights may be delayed or cancelled. Under Italian rules, flights scheduled between 07:00 and 10:00 and between 18:00 and 21:00 are protected. Check with your airline before travelling.

Why: FAST-Confsal says shifts and duties break the national contract, that the company is understaffed as traffic at Fiumicino grows, and that rest rooms, air conditioning and vehicles are inadequate. A conciliation meeting at the Rome prefecture in August failed.
