Quando trabalhadores portugueses pararam em greve geral contra reformas trabalhistas, o eco atravessou o Atlântico: voos entre o Brasil e Portugal foram cancelados, lembrando que as disputas de um povo raramente ficam contidas dentro de suas fronteiras. Nos dias 10 e 11 de dezembro, TAP, TAM e Azul suspenderam ao menos uma dúzia de partidas, interrompendo uma das pontes aéreas mais movimentadas entre a América do Sul e a Europa. O trabalho humano, quando retirado, revela o quanto a mobilidade moderna depende de acordos frágeis entre governos, trabalhadores e o céu.
