Discover Airlines, a Lufthansa subsidiary, is set to experience a 4-day strike by its pilots and cabin crew, causing major disruptions to travel plans. The strike is a result of a conflict between unions over collective agreements.
Discover Airlines operates 27 aircraft from Frankfurt and Munich to popular holiday destinations. The strike has been widely criticized as it is taking place during the peak holiday season.
Passengers are advised to check their flight status and explore alternative travel options such as trains, buses, carpooling, or rental cars. Compensation is available for delayed or cancelled flights.
Discover Airlines has already reached a collective agreement with one union, Verdi, which includes salary increases. However, unions Cockpit and UFO are pushing for their own collective agreements, leading to the strike.
Discover Airlines plans to release information on the number of flight disruptions caused by the strike.
