CABIN crews of German airline Deutsche Lufthansa will strike again today and extend work stoppages, after a labor action on Friday over pay and cost-cutting measures brought Frankfurt airport, Germany's busiest, to a standstill.
The union plans to strike today for longer than the eight hours on Friday and at more airports but is still studying where and when, it said on Sunday in a statement on its website. It will warn at least six hours before new stoppages start, it said.
A spokesman for Lufthansa said that Germany's biggest airline had little possibility to prepare for the strike and was not planning right now to improve its offer to boost wages by 3.5 percent in exchange for longer working hours.
The cabin crew union UFO demands a 5 percent pay rise and guarantees that Lufthansa will not outsource jobs and use more temporary workers.
The first day of labor action cost Lufthansa millions, it has said.
