Lufthansa Pilots Strike Again: Fourth Walkout Grounds Hundreds of Flights

Pilots at German airline Lufthansa have begun a two-day strike, causing massive flight cancellations. The walkout, led by the Vereinigung Cockpit (VC) union, started on Monday and will continue through Tuesday. It is the fourth strike to hit Lufthansa and some subsidiary airlines this year. The action comes just days after the airline's cabin crew held their own strike. Together, these labor disputes have caused severe travel disruption for thousands of passengers. Lufthansa has canceled hundreds of flights in response. The airline advises all passengers to check their flight status before traveling to the airport.
