Cabin crew at German<\/a> flag carrier Lufthansa<\/a>walked off of their jobs<\/a> on Friday, with a strike that began at midnight (2200 Thursday GMT) and that will affect hundreds of flights.<\/p>\n

Some 20,000 flight attendants have been called to strike<\/a> until 10 p.m. on Friday.<\/p>\n

The UFO trade union called a one-day strike for its members both with Lufthansa and its Cityline regional subsidiary, as wage negotiations continue to stall.<\/p>\n

The walkout is Lufthansa’s third major one<\/a> this year. It follows two rounds of pilot strikes.<\/a><\/p>\n

How is the strike expected to affect travel?<\/h2>\n

Lufthansa, Germany’s largest airline, canceled hundreds of flights in advance of the strike, as it struggles to mitigate the impact of the walkout.<\/p>\n

Cancellations are expected to hit the hubs in Munich and Frankfurt, as well as other airports, including Leipzig\/Halle, Berlin and Stuttgart.\u00a0<\/p>\n

At its largest hub in Frankfurt, nearly 75% of some 350 scheduled Lufthansa departures were canceled.<\/p>\n

Though the strike is only meant to affect departures in Germany, it is expected to lead to the cancellation of several return flights for Easter holiday travelers.<\/p>\n

The airline advised its passengers to check the status of their flights before heading to the airport.<\/p>\n

Lufthansa is struggling in negotiations not just with the UFO cabin crew union\u00a0but also the pilots’ trade union Vereinigung Cockpit.<\/p>\n

The two organizations joined forces in early February in a bid to maximize the impact of their strike, leading to major disruptions. The pilots then went on strike for another two days in mid-March.<\/p>\n
