Major airport strike starts – what travelers can expect on Thursday. Around 200,000 passengers are affected and have to change their travel plans.
The airport association ADV predicts around 1,100 flight disruptions, including cancellations and delays. The industrial dispute can be traced back to the collective bargaining round for the aviation security industry. Verdi is calling for a flat-rate increase in hourly wages of 280 euros and faster surcharges for a faster check-in process. They are also calling for an increase in the minimum wage.
