A strike by the pilots of the German airline Lufthansa will so far cancel eight flights between Prague and Frankfurt am Main. One of them already tonight. On the other hand, the flights of the same carrier from Prague to Munich are still unchanged, announced Prague Airport spokeswoman Klára Divíšková. The German airline Lufthansa will cancel about 800 flights on Friday due to a planned pilot strike, which will affect up to 130,000 passengers. Airlines fly to Prague from two cities.
“The strike of this carrier (Lufthansa) will also affect Václav Havel Airport Prague. Today’s evening arrival from Frankfurt has already been cancelled, and tomorrow there will be three arrivals and four departures from the same destination. Flights from/to Munich remain unchanged,” said Divíšková.
In connection with the pilots’ strike on Friday, Lufthansa warned that it could cancel some flights today, Saturday and Sunday. The decision affects almost all Lufthansa flights on Fridays at Munich and Frankfurt am Main airports. The Vereinigung Cockpit pilot union has called a day-long strike over disagreements with company management over wage increases.
