Travellers departing from Frankfurt Airport in Germany tomorrow, March 7, 2024, are set to face significant disruptions as security staff have announced a strike, effectively shutting down security checkpoints. This strike is expected to cause widespread flight cancellations and delays throughout the day.
Passengers who were scheduled to depart from Germany’s biggest airport are urged to stay updated with their airlines and travel operators for information regarding their flights. With security checks unavailable, originating passengers will be unable to proceed with their journeys as planned. It is advised that affected travellers refrain from coming to the airport until the situation is resolved.
This strike adds to the ongoing challenges faced by travellers, as Lufthansa ground staff from multiple companies have also been called to go on a warning strike from March 6th to March 9th. Lufthansa anticipates significant disruptions to its flight program, with delays and cancellations expected.
