The German airline Lufthansa is facing an upcoming pilot strike, which will lead to the cancellation of flights on March 12 and 13. The strike, organized by the union Vereinigung Cockpit (VC), affects Lufthansa, Lufthansa Cargo, and Lufthansa Cityline. For the first time, Cityline flights will also be affected. Flights to the Middle East will not be affected due to the tense situation in air traffic.
The strike is in support of the protest actions supported by the pilots of the three airlines. In Eurowings, voting continues until March 16, therefore the pilots of this airline will not participate in the strikes this week.
