Germany’s flagship airline Lufthansa is scrapping 2,200 European routes in July and August, on top of 900 cancellations unveiled earlier this month.
Lufthansa's cancellations are adding to other travel disruptions at European airports, which are struggling to attract ground-handling staff over pay disputes, further crimping capacity.Deutsche Lufthansa AG is canceling a total of 3,100 flights after a wave of coronavirus infections worsened staffing shortages, adding to Europe’s travel chaos as the crucial summer vacation period gets under way.
Growing labor unrest as workers seek pay increases to keep up with inflation is adding to the problem, with strikes threatened or under way at airlines including Ryanair Holdings Plc and IAG SA’s British Airways. “We were supposed to see some sea animals today, maybe dolphins,” said Jachym Sugarek, 19, sitting on the granite floor at Lufthansa’s main hub in Frankfurt. “Instead, we had black flies in our hotel room last night.”
