MOSCOW (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 14th October, 2019) A union for cabin crew members of German flag carrier Lufthansa Airlines on Monday called for a five-hour strike this weekend over a dispute in workers' pay.

In a statement published on the union's official website, the UFO urged cabin crews in Germany's Frankfurt and Munich airports to walk out between 6:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. local time (04:00-09:00 GMT).

The strike was called after negotiations reportedly fell through over a pay raise, pension plans and other matters.

Frankfurt is one of the busiest airports in Europe and a key layover hub.
