Buy travel insurance while you can. Once a strike is announced your no longer covered. (rephrase that, some insurance companies will drop you like a brick, first excuse possible, in small print) Do some research on alternative routes and airlines, for plan B. Liat Airlines is popular, fills up quick, also not immune to industrial actions. Canadians you have Sunwings as an alternative. Perhaps Spirit Airlines might be going to your airport?
