		</div><p>Hundreds of flights across Italy have been cancelled, forcing travellers at the peak of tourist season to make alternative plans, after unions went ahead with a planned work stoppage two days after a train strike paralysed rail services.</p>
<p>Summer in Italy is often the peak season for transport strikes, stranding commuters and tourists as unions press demands for better work contracts and conditions.</p>
<p>This year, the strikes are taking their toll amid a tourism boom after two years of pandemic losses.</p>
<p>National carrier ITA said it had cancelled 133 flights on Saturday, most of them domestic but a few to European destinations such as Madrid, Amsterdam and Barcelona.</p>
<p>Low-cost airlines Ryanair and Vueling cancelled dozens more flights due to the stoppage from 10am to 6pm.</p>
<p>Striking workers included pilots, flight attendants, baggage handlers and airport personnel.</p>
<p>Labour unions Filt Cgil, Uiltrasporti and Ugl Trasporto said they called the strike over “absolutely unsatisfactory” contract disagreements with Malta Air, which operates Ryanair flights.</p>
<p>The Irish carrier posted a note on its website apologising for cancellations and other disruptions, and saying the strike is “beyond our control”.</p>
<p>On Thursday, commuters and tourists were stranded at sweltering train stations across the country as a strike by rail workers crippled services including high-speed trains that are usually guaranteed.</p>
