Holidaymakers could have their holiday plans cancelled or delayed in July due to a strike by Spanish travel staff.
It comes as Spanish cabin crew for EasyJet are said to be planning to go on strike for nine days next month after a demand for higher pay from the local USO union.
As a result, the strike could cause more issues for the airline with EasyJet already having struggled with staff shortages causing hundreds of cancellations up and down the country.

Currently, EasyJet's flight attendants basic salary in Spain sits at 950€ which is around £775 however they're now demanding a 40 per cent increase, Miguel Galan general secretary of USO's easyJet section has said.
As reported by Edinburgh Live, cabin crew in Spain will walk out on July 1 to 3, 15 to 17 as well as 29 to 31.
The walk out would mean staff will stop working at EasyJet’s bases in Barcelona, Málaga and Palma.
Galan added: "The company underestimated the outlook, was more pessimistic and conservative and is not ready for the demand… this generates a domino effect on us."
A spokesperson for EasyJet told Edinburgh Live: “easyJet has been advised of strike action by its cabin crew based in Spain between 1-3, 15-17, and 29-31 July at its bases in Barcelona, Malaga, and Palma.
"We are extremely disappointed with this action as we have made considerable progress towards a new CLA and so would like to continue the constructive dialogue with them.
“Should the industrial action go ahead there could be some disruption to our flying programme to and from Malaga, Palma and Barcelona during the strike period but at this stage, easyJet plans to operate its full schedule and we would like to reassure customers that we will do everything possible to minimise any disruption.”
