Hola all

ALSA sent me an email on Friday 25 Oct ‘24 advising about a national strike of the transportation unions on Monday 28 Oct ‘24. Which is the very day I have ticket from Madrid to Pedrafito Do Cebreido. See below for the email text. It says “for the moment” my trip is ok because of minimum service status. I went to the Moncloa station and spoke with a gentleman (in my 18 month old vocabulary Spanish :) who seemed to say this bus will operate.

Does anyone here have further information or sources of information please? I have not found much current information and in particular if the strike is assured and if the Renfe rail system will be too?

Thank you/ Gracias!
Benoit

Email text from ALSA:
Te informamos que el próximo lunes 28 de octubre se llevará a cabo una huelga de transporte a nivel nacional. Sin embargo, tu viaje para ese día operará como servicio mínimo y por el momento no se encuentra afectado.

En caso de necesitarlo, ponemos a tu disposición el cambio o anulación de tu billete sin coste….

Atentamente,

Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.

A story online says that it is bus and taxi drivers. Train does not appear to be involved.
