Air travellers are facing delays and cancellations in Portugal as pilots working for the country’s flagship carrier TAP continue a ten-day strike.

Twenty-five percent of Saturday’s flights were cancelled and that looks set to continue for at least another week.

The stoppage is expected to affect three some 300,000 passengers.
