Episode Description
This week we're talking about Italy in the news. In today's episode we'll talk about the upcoming strikes and how they could affect your trip. We'll also talk about the collapse of Torre dei Conti which tragically killed one person, the new deputy president of Tuscany, a landmark law which defines consent, and the ongoing saga with the bridge over the Straight of Messina.
As mentioned in the episode some train journeys and flights are guaranteed during strikes. Here you can find guaranteed trains with Trenitalia and Italo.
Here is a list of guaranteed flights for the strike on November 28. Flights departing between 7 to 10 a.m. and from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m are guaranteed. Flights are trickier to deal with during a strike, in my opinion, if you plan to travel on November 28 keep a keen eye on any travel apps you use for updates.
