CP warns of disruptions to circulation starting Thursday

Comboios de Portugal (CP) warns of train disruptions from Thursday to Saturday due to a strike by ticket inspectors and ticket office workers. The strike, organized by the SFRCI union, aims for better working conditions and is set for October 30. Passengers with tickets for various services can request refunds or exchanges. The union highlights the need for measures to restore purchasing power and improve workers' conditions, citing rising living costs. Workers demand adjustments to transport subsidies and the conclusion of negotiations on unpaid rest days. They also call for timely publication of salary agreements and adjustments to train schedules to reflect infrastructure realities. Essential services will be maintained during the strike.
