Transport Strikes Paralyze Germany's Airports and Railways.
TL;DR Summary
Three German airports, Dusseldorf, Hamburg, and Cologne Bonn, are virtually empty due to strikes called by Germany's Verdi trade union over the cost of living crisis. Nearly 100,000 people will be affected by aviation security worker strikes on Thursday and Friday at the three airports, with around 700 departing flights to be cancelled. The strike will affect 50 companies and run from 3 a.m. until 11 a.m. (0100 GMT-0900 GMT), with significant disruption expected, the railway and transport union said.
