Passengers have to reckon with many flight cancellations
The Verdi services union has announced nationwide warning strikes. Düsseldorf Airport is also affected. Public service and aviation security employees are called upon to stop work on Monday, March 27th.
Depending on the area and group of employees, the 24-hour strikes begin on Monday at 00:00, 03:00 or 06:00.
Around 330 take-offs and landings are scheduled for Monday. The strike will lead to many flight cancellations. The airport recommends all passengers to check with their airline or tour operator to ensure their flight is operating as scheduled. In order to speed up passenger screening, carry-on baggage should be reduced to a minimum.
Late night check-in is not possible on Sunday, March 26th.
