Lufthansa strikes called off – for now
Cabin crew have agreed to call off the strikes previously announced for tomorrow, Friday and next Monday following talks with management.
The German airline said progress had been made during yesterday’s discussions, leading the Independent Flight Attendant’s Organisation (UFO) to call off industrial action.
It said the UFO had agreed not to stage any further strikes at least until December 2, when an employment summit will take place.
The news will come as a relief to passengers, 550,000 of whom were disrupted earlier this month when Lufthansa crew staged a week-long strike.
The problems stem from the airline’s cost-cutting plans as it tries to compete with other carriers.
