Off to it train strike tomorrow, Saturday May 4 2024, and Sunday 5. In fact, on the Trenitalia website we read that “from 21pm on Saturday 4 May to 20.59pm on Sunday 5 May 2024 trains may be subject to cancellations or variations, due to a national strike by the staff of the FS group, Trenitalia, Trenitalia Tper and Trenord".
Train strike: Trenord, Trenitalia and the guarantee bands
“Since it is a public holiday, there are no guarantee bands,” he writes on his website Trenord who at the same time adds: “Trains may be cancelled. However, it should be noted that the acronym Cat (i.e. the Self-organized transport coordination who called the strike, ed) is not represented in Trenord: in similar circumstances there were no significant repercussions on the service. Any changes will be communicated on the Trenord website and App".
“In the event of cancellation of airport service trains, buses will be established without intermediate stops between: milano cadorna e Malpensa Airport for the Malpensa Express. From Milan Cadorna the buses will leave from via Paleocapa 1. Stabio and Malpensa Airport for the S50 Malpensa Airport – Stabio airport connection. Busto Arsizio FS and Malpensa Airport.

In this case, it is explained, “the union unrest can lead to changes to the service even before it begins and after its conclusion. Travelers will be able to request a ticket refund in accordance with the 'General Conditions of Transport' of each carrier, which can be consulted on the website of the individual railway companies.
