Lufthansa Pilots Call Two-Day Strike

Travelers in Germany face significant disruptions as Lufthansa pilots prepare for a 48-hour walkout.

The strike, called by the pilots' union, follows the failure of recent negotiations regarding pay increases and retirement benefits.

Lufthansa has criticized the move, stating it will cause unnecessary hardship for thousands of passengers.

The strike is expected to result in hundreds of flight cancellations across the airline's major hubs, further complicating a challenging period for the European aviation sector.
