An airline company has asked for special permission from the Spanish government to take extra percautions for VIP or wealthy customers heading to Spain for luxury hotels so that they would not be effected by air traffic control disruption.
Irish low cost airliner Ryanair have asked Spanish authorities to use the military if necessary for airports which close down due to air traffic controllers or mass airport strikes.
The Irish low budget airlliner have also given examples from other country’s which allow such procedures in the condition of country wide strikes.
Ryanair’s chairman Stephen McNamara said: “Air transport and tourism are vital to the Spanish economy and the government must ensure that Spanish airports remain open during strikes by calling on the military to provide air traffic control services.”
The news comes just three months after tens of thousands of flights were grounded after the Iceland volcano which errupted and sent huge ash clouds into the sky.
Many Britsh tourists opted for alternative means of transport after the weeks long disruptions which cost airliners billions of Euros due to ash clouds.
