Passengers flying in and out of India (except Chennai) by Lufthansa Airlines to various parts of the world, including the US, today missed their flights due to a strike by the German trade union ver.di. The German airline cancelled six flights out of Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore. However, its flight out of Chennai was unaffected, said an official of the airline who did not want to be named.
Lufthansa cancelled its Delhi-Munich, Delhi-Frankfurt, Mumbai-Munich, Mumbai-Frankfurt and Bangalore-Frankfurt flights scheduled to depart today from India. It also cancelled its return flights on the same routes from Germany scheduled for today.
The airline’s contingency plan included passengers rebooking their itineraries free of charge.
