Deutsche Lufthansa AG aims to return to almost normal operations on Saturday after the conclusion of the airline’s longest-ever strike in a protracted labor dispute that led to thousands of cancellations.

Lufthansa dropped more than 900 connections on Friday, bringing the total number of flights canceled during the week-long walkout by flights attendants to 4,700. The UFO cabin crew union is planning a rally Friday in Frankfurt and has said that it may call additional strikes to press management into accepting its demands.
