Major airport strike in Germany forces flight cancellations at Berlin,
Hamburg and Frankfurt
Lufthansa has advised travellers to stay at home.

German airports are bracing for travel chaos on Thursday as workers go on
strike.

Security employees will walk out at airports across the country on 1 Februaryto demand higher wages.

Some airports, including Hamburg Berlin Brandenburg, have said that all
departures will be cancelled on the strike day. Arrivals could also be
affected.

The walkout will also impact Bremen, Hannover, Cologne, Düsseldorf, Dresden,
Erfurt, Frankfurt, Leipzig and Stuttgart airports.

Germany’s flag carrier Lufthansa will be severely affected.

Here’s everything you need to know if you have a flight booked in Germany on
Thursday.

Passengers with departing flights advised not to travel
Lufthansa strongly recommends anyone with a departing flight booked at
Bremen, Berlin, Dresden, Frankfurt, Hamburg or Leipzig on Thursday not to
come to the airport.

It says there will be no access to the departure area at these airports, as
the security checkpoints will be closed. This means passengers will not be
able to complete the checks needed to legally be able to fly.

This also applies to those who are travelling to Frankfurt Airport by train
for a connecting flight.

Flights between at least 3 am on 1 February and 3 am on 2 February are
expected to be impacted.

Trains are available for many flight routes
If you have a domestic Lufthansa flight booked to or from Frankfurt on 1
February, you can switch to a train ticket free of charge via the airline’s
website - even if your flight has not yet been cancelled.

Eurowings will also be severely impacted by the strikes, with “massive
disruptions” expected. It says it will inform affected passengers and, where
possible, offer alternative connections or rebookings to rail.

Austrian Airlines has warned of possible delays to its flight schedule on
Thursday. Passengers who provided their phone number or email on booking willbe contacted directly about any changes. Updates can be found on the airline’s website and app.

Why are airport workers in Germany going on strike?
Union Verdi says it has been negotiating on behalf of around 25,000 employeeswith the Federal Association of Aviation Security Companies (BDLS).

They are demanding a wage increase of €2.80 per hour to offset inflation, as
well as increased bonuses and overtime pay.

“The work of the aviation security forces must remain financially attractive
so that the urgently needed skilled workers can be recruited and retained,”
Verdi said in a press release on Tuesday.

“There is already a shortage of qualified workers who are willing to work
extremely flexibly at the airports around the clock, on weekends and on
public holidays - security in air traffic does not come for free.”

A 4 per cent wage increase in 2024, equating to between €0.55 and €0.82 per
hour, followed by a further 3 per cent increase in 2025 has been floated by
the employer. Verdi has dismissed this as “inadequate” in addressing
inflation.

Collective bargaining negotiations will resume on 6-7 February.
