Continued attention to the German Lufthansa pilot strike. 22nd was the first day of the four-day strike, with two-thirds of Lufthansa's flights worldwide being canceled. The strike has brought huge losses to Lufthansa, and Lufthansa's board, which has been reluctant to budge on strike pilots, has filed an application with the court for a temporary injunction banning pilots from striking. Lufthansa spokesperson Klaus Walter: The Lufthansa Executive Board is currently working to minimise economic losses to shareholders and consumers, and the company's legal counsel believes that the legal avenues we are currently resorting to can successfully solve the problem, so we applied for Franklin City Labor Court to enforce the provisional injunction Because the impact of this strike is really too big. Lufthansa expects that the strike will cause the company a daily loss of € 25 million, a total of 100 million euros, and that, under normal circumstances, Lufthansa has about 1800 flights per day around the world, and that the strike has resulted in the cancellation of about 25th of Lufthansa 22nd to Two-thirds, due to the cancellation of a large number of flights, Many passengers were forced to change from plane to train, which brought pressure on German railways. The German Railway department has increased the number of trains to ease the pressure on transport. Airports in Cologne, Bonn and elsewhere have also responded by urgently seconding other airlines ' planes to transport passengers who have already purchased Lufthansa air tickets. But the day of the Frankfurt airport was not paralysed because the management had deployed an emergency plan to deal with the strike. American Traveler: We appreciate the German efficiency at least we can go home. American Traveler: But we have to get to the airport 3 hours early.
