A strike by ground staff at Budapest's international Ferihegy airport is expected to cause delays on Tuesday, a spokesman of Hungarian airlines Malev told MTI on Tuesday.

 

No flights had to be cancelled so far as a result of the strike which was started on Monday evening, said Adam Hegedus. Malev requests passengers to arrive at the airport an hour earlier than usual, he added.

 

The Aviation Workers' United Trade Union (LESZ) announced an open-ended strike after unsuccessful negotiations with Malev GH management.
