German airline Lufthansa has cancelled all flights between Vilnius and Frankfurt scheduled for Thursday and Friday due to a strike by its employees.
According to Lietuvos Oro Uostai (Lithuanian Airports, LTOU), the airport operator in Lithuania, a total of eight flights will be affected.
“The airline will inform passengers who have purchased tickets for these flights about the alternatives or compensation offered,” LTOU said.
On Monday, German trade union Ver.di announced that Lufthansa ground handlers will stage a two-day strike from Thursday.
It comes less than a week after the last strike by Lufthansa’s ground support and aviation training staff, which demanded a pay rise.
