Passengers are not the only ones troubled by the recent delays at Barcelona Airport. The association of Spanish airline companies, Aceta, has expressed its concern over the hold-ups at airport security checkpoints over the past few days. In a statement, the organization called for measures to avoid the situation getting worse “as soon as possible”, particularly as passenger numbers at the airport are set to rise with the start of the August vacation, and with an indefinite strike by security workers due to begin on Friday.
