Deutsche Lufthansa AG faces almost three months of on-and-off strikes that threaten to disrupt Germany’s largest carrier during the travel-intensive summer vacation period after talks with cabin crew about benefits broke down.
Cabin-crew union UFO will ask its members to strike on individual days from July 1 to at least Sept. 16 after faulting Lufthansa for failure to honor accords signed last year. The group will present a strike schedule at the start of next month and will announce locations and fleets targeted only on the corresponding strike days, it said.
