BERLIN (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 12th March, 2023) Berlin, Hamburg, Hanover and Bremen airports will cancel departures on Monday due to warning strikes, German media reported.
Germany's services sector trade union Verdi has called on security staff to hold a warning strike at Berlin Branderburg Airport as well as at Hamburg, Hanover and Bremen airports, German newspaper Welt reported.
The company managing the airports clarified that nearly 200 flights will be canceled in Berlin, affecting some 27,000 passengers.
