Lufthansa is cancelling an additional 2,000 flights from Frankfurt and Munich this summer, the German flagship carrier said on Wednesday, citing staffing shortages at airports as well as industrial action and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
→ Lufthansa plans to fly Airbus A380 again.
“Lufthansa has implemented numerous measures and is recruiting additional staff wherever possible to ensure the greatest possible stability of the flight schedule and thus offer its passengers the best possible planning security,” the carrier told Reuters.
The cancellations come on top of the 770 it had announced for the week of July 8 to 14, it said.
