Strike chaos at Munich Airport: Only a fifth of the flights take place. Around 1,000 flights were originally planned in Munich for the entire period of the Verdi union's warning strike in the collective bargaining dispute with Lufthansa.
According to a spokesman for the airport, around 500 of the 800 flights planned for the day will be canceled on Thursday alone. A similar rate is expected for Friday. Passengers affected by flight cancellations as a result of the strike will be informed by email or via the Lufhansa app.
