Thousands of passengers faced travel chaos as pilots at Lufthansa went on a two-day strike, leading to hundreds of flight cancellations.
Major airports like Frankfurt and Munich saw long queues and delays, leaving many travellers stranded or rushing to make alternate plans. The strike is part of an ongoing dispute between pilots and the airline over pay and benefits.
The situation may worsen, as cabin crew unions have also warned of possible strikes soon. Passengers have been advised to check flight updates regularly as talks continue, with no clear resolution yet.
