"Hundreds of flights are set to be canceled, with the major hubs of Frankfurt and Munich hit hardest, in the fourth strike of 2026 to hit the airline."
"As a result of the strikes at Lufthansa by the pilots' trade union Vereinigung Cockpit (VC), there will be delays and cancellations for Lufthansa flights all day on April 13 and 14 at Frankfurt Airport."
"Eurowings had said on Sunday that it expected to be able to keep 'a large part' of services in the air despite the strike."
"The VC union said that it would not strike on those flights still able to depart."
Pilots from Lufthansa, Lufthansa Cargo, and Eurowings initiated a 48-hour strike, leading to hundreds of flight cancellations, particularly affecting Frankfurt and Munich airports. The strike is the fourth in 2026, as Lufthansa negotiates with the Vereinigung Cockpit union and the UFO cabin crew union. Frankfurt Airport reported most Lufthansa departures canceled, with some domestic flights replaced by rail services. Munich Airport warned passengers of severe disruptions. Eurowings pilots are striking only on Monday, while not all Lufthansa pilots are participating in the strike.
