Work stoppages are planned for Thursday and Friday among ground staff at AUA parent Lufthansa and among security control staff in Frankfurt and Hamburg.
An emergency timetable comes into force at Deutsche Bahn due to the strike. To ensure that as many passengers as possible reach their destination, the DB will use particularly long trains for long-distance transport. The ÖBB recommend postponing non-urgent trips to Germany. ÖBB long-distance trains via the Deutsche Eck between Salzburg and Kufstein are expected to run as scheduled. Details about the affected train connections can be found on oebb.at and in the ÖBB timetable app SCOTTY. Westbahn trains to and from Munich and Rosenheim as well as via the Deutsche Eck to Tyrol and Vorarlberg should also run as scheduled. Four Lufthansa flights Vienna-Munich are said to be affected by the strike on Thursday.
