Particularly concerned to have read tonight that Ryanair crews are planning walkouts over the next few weeks - particularly as I am due to be flying to Spain on the 30th!

Does anyone know the likely level of cancellations as a result of these strikes and if there is a way to find out in advance which flights will be affected?
RYANAIR staff are planning strike action this summer with cabin crew walkouts scheduled across Europe. Which countries are affected?
British holidaymakers have faced mayhem this year with cancelled flights and delays. This is likely to continue during the summer asRyanair staff plan a walkout.
Strikes are set to take place in Spain, Portugal, France, Italy and Belgium in June.
Spain
Strike action is expected to take place in Spain on June 24, 25,26 and 30 as well as on July 1 and 2.
Workers have said they are unhappy with working conditions and pay which has led to the walkout.
The six-day strike could affect holidaymakers travelling to Spain at the end of June for an early summer break.
Portugal
Portugal-based Ryanair crew are expected to strike on June 24, 25 and 26.
Workers have demanded compliance with Portuguese law and better working conditions for staff.
The civil aviation union, SNPVAC said: “This mobilisation is not only an opportunity to put the spotlight on multiple attacks on workers’ dignity and to make this reality known but also a moment to show unity and solidarity against dumping.”
Belgium
Trade unions have said they were forced into action because they claim Ryanair was not respecting Belgian labour law.
Ryanair workers are planning to strike from June 24 to June 26. On Monday, Brussels Airport cancelled all departing flights due to a security staff strike.
