Lufthansa and its passengers cannot rest. No sooner has the warning strike among ground staff come to an end than the cabin crew union Ufo is calling on the approximately 19,000 flight attendants at.
Cabin staff at German airline Lufthansa will begin their strike action on Friday, the workers’ union has said.

The UFO union did not say where the strikes would take place, but said it would give six hours’ notice.
“We do not want to give Lufthansa the opportunity to prepare for the strike by getting replacement crews ready,” UFO head Nicoley Baublies told Reuters.
The union and the airline have been at loggerheads over the past year over pay and working conditions.
The union is seeking a pay increase of 5% for cabin staff for 15 months starting from January this year, after three years of no increases.
