Tonight at dinner, Randy Reid learned that Lufthansa pilots will strike for two days starting 12 March, targeting flights from Germany over pension disputes. The strike exempts Middle East flights due to ongoing regional tensions, affecting Lufthansa’s core airline, Cargo, and CityLine operations. This is the second strike in the dispute, following February cancellations that impacted over 800 flights. Airlines continue adjusting schedules across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, while some carriers, including Emirates, Etihad, and Oman Air, operate limited repatriation and relief flights. Passengers are urged to check updated schedules amid ongoing disruptions and regional airspace restrictions.
