Back to newsHotel workers in Heraklion are on strike, with participants organizing a motorized march through the airport and key tourist areas of the city. The strike involves employees from the hotel sector, likely related to wage or labor disputes typical of peak season negotiations. Tourists staying in or passing through Heraklion may experience reduced hotel services such as limited housekeeping, front desk staffing, or food and beverage operations. The march through tourist zones and the airport area could cause temporary traffic disruptions. Visitors arriving or departing via Heraklion International Airport (HER) should allow extra travel time and check with their accommodation in advance to understand which services may be affected during the strike period.
