Not only in Berlin, but also at the airport in Hamburg there is a strike today. In Hamburg, the ver.di trade union called on the employees of the handling service provider Aviation Handling Services Hamburg GmbH AHS to go on strike at short notice.
Among other things, the company handles check-in and boarding of AUA flights – three AUA flights to Vienna were therefore canceled, according to information from Vienna Airport. The Eurowings flights, on the other hand, will take place.
At Berlin-Brandenburg Airport, the announced warning strike by security personnel has begun as announced. At 3.30 a.m., numerous employees in the aviation security area, in passenger control and in personnel and goods control stopped work, as ver.di union secretary Enrico Rümker confirmed.
Shortly after the warning strike was announced, the airport announced that no passenger flights would take off today. Seven flights between Berlin and Vienna will also be cancelled.
