Lufthansa cabin crew begin strike
"Lufthansa's cabin crew walked off their jobs, leading to hundreds of flight cancellations. The strike began at midnight and is set to last until 10 p.m. on Friday."
"The UFO trade union organized the one-day strike as wage negotiations with Lufthansa and its Cityline subsidiary remain unresolved, involving around 20,000 flight attendants."
"Cancellations are expected to significantly impact major hubs, with nearly 75% of scheduled departures from Frankfurt being canceled, affecting Easter holiday travel."
"Lufthansa is facing challenges not only with the UFO union but also with the pilots' trade union, which has previously conducted strikes, leading to major disruptions."
Cabin crew members at Lufthansa initiated a strike affecting hundreds of flights, starting at midnight and lasting until 10 p.m. on Friday. Approximately 20,000 flight attendants participated in the walkout due to stalled wage negotiations. This strike follows two previous pilot strikes earlier in the year. Lufthansa canceled many flights in advance, particularly impacting major hubs like Munich and Frankfurt. The airline warned passengers to check flight statuses, as the strike could also affect return flights for Easter travelers.
