Easyjet, the British low cost airline now famous all over the world, it estimates a reduction in transport capacity for the summer from 160 thousand flights three years ago to 144 thousand. Wizzair also canceled the flight from Bologna to Palermo on the evening of June 19, with considerable inconvenience for users.

In short, a complex summer is expected for the world of air transport. But the situation is not just about Easyjet. In fact, serious inconveniences have occurred in recent days to the detriment of a group of dozens of people with disabilities, blocked for several hours at the Lamezia Terme airport inside a plane due most likely to the lack of staff at the Lametine airport of the Sacal.
