Previous Ryanair strikes

Ryanair’s pilots had already struck in August, affecting many flights during the summer. Earlier this month, it looked like the Irish Ryanair’s pilots had reached an agreement with the airline, which seemed like the strikes in Ireland would be over. However, the rest of the European Ryanair’s pilots are still not happy. Throughout Europe, the personnel of Ryanair is still complaining about having contracts based on the Irish law, instead of that of the country they actually work in.
