Strikes sweeping Europe in the coming month are expected to disrupt flight schedules at some of the continent's busiest airports.
The strikes come as workers across the continent are demanding better working conditions and pay.
Though mass walkouts are often announced months ahead, they sometimes occur at the last minute.
Those who are travelling across the UK or visiting European countries are advised to keep abreast of travel updates for the latest information on strikes.
