“The reason for the strike are the parallel rounds of collective bargaining, for which a solution has not yet been found in any of the three sectors,” ver.di said in a statement.
The union said its members were asking for a raise of 500 euros ($544) a month.
The strike affected some 300 flights to and from the German capital.
