Strike by Lufthansa Staff Affects Long Haul Routes

Lufthansa has had to cancel its European and domestic flights over the past two days of industrial action and appears no closer to reaching an agreement over a pay dispute.  They are now forced to cut their long haul services which include flights to Calcutta, Calgary, Chicago and New York. 

Flybe Airline is stepping in to fill the gap by arranging to use larger aircraft on its flights servicing Germany from Birmingham, Manchester and Southampton to Dusseldorf, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Hannover and Stuttgart.
