A worker strike by Lufthansa's ground staff has led to the cancellation of over 1100 flights, affecting 130,000 passengers. The strike is due to a pay dispute, with workers demanding a 9.5% increase to match inflation. The disruption is impacting not only Lufthansa but also other airlines with codeshare agreements, such as United and Air Canada.
