Hundreds of Lufthansa planes will stay on the ground on Thursday amid an all-day strike by pilots and flight attendants. The strike comes as the airline's efforts to cut costs and become more profitable have put it in conflict with unions. The number of flights affected by the industrial action remains unclear, with the company initially speaking only of "numerous cancellations." Some flights are still to take place from larger airports, such as those in Frankfurt and Berlin.
