Court stops work stoppage by Greece’s Air Traffic Controllers as “illegal”

Flights from and to Greek airports will be carried out as normal on Tuesday, April 9, 2024 after a court ruled that the four-hour work stoppage was “illegal.”

An Athens’ First Instance Court ruled illegal the four-hour work stoppage announced by the Air Traffic Controllers Union. The work stoppage from 8:00 to 12:00 was to take place in order to commemorate a colleague who died while on duty.

The Civil Aviation Authority that took the Air Flight Controllers action to court stressed that its priority is to serve passengers and ensure their safety, and to support the domestic tourism product, to which everyone working at the Civil Aviation Authority must contribute conscientiously and with responsibility.
