Pilots and cabin crew at Lufthansa subsidiary Discover voted overwhelmingly to strike, with 81% of Cockpit members and 91.8% of UFO members backing action. Cockpit and UFO represent Discover's 2,000 staff, including 500 pilots and 1,400 cabin crew, seeking to bypass Verdi union agreements.
Discover Airlines operates 27 planes based in Munich and Frankfurt, flying to holiday destinations in Europe and further afield, and plans to expand to 33 by 2027. The unions did not rule out solidarity strikes at the much larger parent company, Lufthansa.
