If you haven’t been paying attention, Lufthansa has been under the foot of Vereinigung Cockpit as the union has been calling its members out on strike. Well Lufthansa Strike Day 4 commences today.
Which is inconvenient at best.
The past three days have alternated between short/medium haul and long haul services. Today, it’s the turn of the long haul operation to suffer from strikes.

75 Flights are affected today, with cancellations stretching from the 20th March. 71 of the cancellations will occur on the 21st March.
Cancellations as usual are listed at http://www.lufthansa.com/online/portal/lh/de/flight_services/cancelled_flights?nodeid=1410039030&l=en&cid=18002 with flights to and from Lufthansa’s hubs at Frankfurt and Munich hit.
Rebooking information is at http://www.lufthansa.com/de/en/Travel-information, and as usual I’d suggest being proactive in your rebookings rather than leave it to chance.
Good luck if you have to fly….
