Verdi is on strike at Stuttgart Airport on Thursday. The aviation security forces are working at the controls for passengers, baggage and personnel.

Without them, normal operation is not possible. Air traffic is therefore likely to be paralyzed in large parts of Germany. Verdi is demanding, among other things, higher salaries for the approximately 25,000 employees nationwide. Collective bargaining will continue on February 6th and 7th. It was initially unclear whether or how many starts would have to be canceled. An airport spokeswoman said this still needs to be investigated.
