More Lufthansa flights cancelled between Budapest and Germany, strike on Tuesday and Wednesday

The German airline’s flight attendants have called for a strike in Frankfurt on 12 March and in Munich on 13 March, with Lufthansa cancelling flights between Frankfurt and Budapest on Tuesday, and between Munich and Budapest on Wednesday.

The union’s call for strike action has forced the airline to cancel flights and change its timetable on both days.

According to Budapest Airport‘s flight information page, Lufthansa has cancelled all flights between Frankfurt and Budapest on Tuesday and will not operate flights to Munich on Wednesday.

As we wrote today, the train drivers’ union is also on strike on 12 March, with train services across Germany completely stopped, so the German airline is suggesting that passengers who choose to use the rail vouchers offered as an alternative should do so on Wednesday 13 March.
