Liverpool airport: Latest strike update

20th August 2009 Statement taken from liverpoolairport.com

Airline ground handling services at Liverpool John Lennon Airport are provided by a number of companies. One of these, Servisair, is currently in dispute with its employees with industrial action by baggage handling staff due to commence from Thursday 20th August 2009 onwards.

Servisair has assured the Airport Company that their robust contingency plans now in place will ensure it is business as usual at the Airport.

Those passengers travelling with airlines who do not use Servisair should be unaffected by any potential industrial action (easyJet and Eastern Airways).

Liverpool John Lennon Airport will endeavour to keep passengers informed regarding this situation, however, passengers are advised to check in for their flights as normal.
