Spain declares State of Alert after wildcat strikes - Telegraph: "Hundreds of thousands of passengers were left stranded by the walkout, which came during one of Spain's busiest weekends for travel.
The Spanish government was holding crisis talks to try and force the air traffic controllers back to work, and police were gathering at the control centres in case the government decided to arrest the controllers.
'If the situation doesn't normalise, the government will declare a state of emergency,' said Alfredo Rubalcaba, deputy prime minister, ahead of a hastily assembled cabinet meeting in Madrid."
