Without prior notice, the union called on the services at Hamburg Airport to go on strike immediately this Sunday. For this reason, many departures and arrivals of planes at this airport have been canceled. Meanwhile, the website of Hamburg Airport also states that many departures and arrivals of planes have been canceled for Sunday.
Passengers are advised to contact their airline and check their flight status regularly. Many people have been waiting for hours at the terminals since morning.
The strike comes unexpectedly, a day earlier than planned.
A union spokesman explained that “the strike was necessary so that its impact could really be felt.” The damage to passengers is well known, but employers, according to the union, must present a serious offer to their demands. The demand is for an 8% wage increase.
Multiple strikes on Monday
The strike in Hamburg began on Sunday. But strikes are expected at 11 different airports in Germany tomorrow. Therefore, travelers should be informed in advance whether their trips will be carried out.
Unions are warning of massive cuts in airports in Frankfurt am Main, Munich, Berlin/Brandenburg, Düsseldorf, Hamburg, Cologne/Bonn, Stuttgart, Hannover, Dortmund, Leipzig/Halle and Bremen.
Berlin Airport has announced a suspension of flights: "BER completely suspends operations," the information says. According to current estimates, thousands of flights will be canceled on Monday and hundreds of thousands of passengers will be affected. Therefore, airports and airline associations are advising you to stay informed about the situation in good time.
