Tournament organiser Hugh Raymond said that players trying to travel across Europe to reach Jersey for the tournament, due to start on Sunday at Les Ormes, are struggling to make it after BA announced strikes on 20-22 and 27-30 March.
Raymond said: ‘A lot of people are being told that their flights into hubs such as Hamburg and Amsterdam have been cancelled and the knock on effect is that they cannot make their connecting flight to Jersey in time.
‘As a result people are asking if they can arrive on Monday instead and have been requesting that we change their hotel bookings and car hire. But we have a deadline for people to sign in to the tournament and that is 9 pm Saturday for the men and 6 pm Sunday for the ladies.’
