San Javier Airport Workers Uneasy About Forthcoming Changes

San Javier Mayor, José Miguel Luengo (pictured right), has pledged the council’s support to the union representing workers at San Javier airport who are worried about the loss of jobs or enforced relocation when the facility is eventually closed and moved to Corvera.

The Mayor met with local union leader, Cayetano Conesa, who represents the interests of 72 workers at the airport, and made it clear that his members were very uneasy about all the uncertainty. A demonstration was then held outside the terminal building, with no fresh developments over the re-tendering of the management contract for the facility at Corvera.
