The strike will run from 00:00 through to 23:59 on Wednesday, impacting 876 flights across the route network
A new timetable is in force, and you will need to check with Lufthansa if your flight is operating. Flights by other Lufthansa-Group Airlines (Germanwings, Eurowings, Air Dolomiti, Austrian Airlines, SWISS and Brussels Airlines) are operating normally.
Rebooking options are now open, and you can do this online or on the phone.
Changes and current advisories from the airline are at www.lufthansa.com/online/portal/lh/de/flight_services/cti
It goes without saying that this could be a very nasty very quick with two parts of Lufthansa group going out on strike.
Plan accordingly, and rebook as soon as you can if you were intending travelling today. Going through Frankfurt or Munich today will be a mess
