Locations affected by this alert: Italy The following transportation strikes are expected in Italy during Jan: * Jan. 8: Air traffic controllers strike, 1200 to 1600 Rome time (1100-1500 GMT). * Jan. 10: Tirennia ferry workers, 24-hour strike. * Jan. 18: All air transport workers expected to strike, 1000-1800 Rome time (0900-1700 GMT). * Jan. 28: Air traffic controllers to strike at Milan's Linate airport, 1200-1600 (1100-1500 GMT). * Jan. 30: Transportation strike expected to affect air, rail, and ferry services throughout Italy, 1000-0100 (0900-0200 GMT). Recent nationwide strikes by civil aviation personnel and transportation workers have crippled Italian airports. If the strikes occur, expect delays and flight disruptions. To minimize disruptions: * Contact your airline prior to departing for the airport to determine the impact on your flight. * Confirm reservations at least 72 hours before your flight and, if possible, obtain a seat assignment. * If changing a ticket, go to a city ticket office to avoid crowds at the airport. * Arrive at the airport earlier than normal to allow extra time for security screening and check-in. Crowded conditions have caused travelers to miss their flights in the past. The strikes could add stress to alternate transportation systems in Italy and the region. In the event of a strike, expect an increase in road traffic and higher-than-normal crowds on buses and trains. Strikes in Italy are often called off at the last minute. If traveling on the above days, check with your airline before leaving for the airport to determine the status of your flight.
