The Lufthansa subsidiary assumes that more than 230 of the approximately 400 flights scheduled for Monday will take place despite industrial action. Eurowings also hopes to realize more than half of its scheduled flight schedule for Tuesday and Wednesday.
Pilots at the Lufthansa subsidiary stopped working for the second time in less than 14 days. During the first strike on October 6, about half of all flights were cancelled. Because of this, tens of thousands of passengers had to switch to other flights or trains or postpone their journeys.
The pilots association wants to use industrial action to achieve better working conditions. A key requirement is employee relaxation, for example by reducing maximum flight duty times and increasing rest periods. Eurowings criticized the strike as disproportionate and irresponsible.
Passengers were asked to find out the status of their flights on the Eurowings website or through the Eurowings app.
