On Tuesday 10 November 2026, Luxembourg's national airline Luxair issued a travel notice warning passengers of possible flight disruptions in Spain and Portugal on Wednesday 11 November 2026, due to a national strike and severe weather conditions.
A national strike is scheduled to take place across Spain on Wednesday, affecting several sectors, including aviation and ground handling services.
Luxair has advised passengers returning from Spain to arrive at the airport at least three hours before departure. Passengers travelling from Luxembourg to Spain are also encouraged to arrive in good time, as longer waiting times and delays are possible.
Meanwhile, Portugal is expected to experience severe weather from Wednesday morning, with heavy rainfall and winds reaching up to 120 km/h.
Passengers travelling to or from Portugal are advised to check their flight status before leaving for the airport, as delays and changes to flight schedules may occur.
Luxair stated that it is closely monitoring both situations and taking measures to minimise disruption. The airline will communicate any changes directly to affected Luxair and Luxairtours customers using the contact details provided in their bookings.
