Germany
Lufthansa pilots announced a strike impacting flights; last Friday, Lufthansa flight attendants also struck. Flights to the Middle East are exempt from the strike due to regional situations. The strike is over disputes about pensions and wages. A Lufthansa spokesperson called the union's pension doubling demand unfeasible.
Infact verdict: Mixed (57/100).
The claims regarding Lufthansa strikes are predominantly accurate based on web evidence. There is a current pilot strike announced from April 13-14, verified by multiple sources such as Bloomberg. The flight attendants' strike on April 10 is confirmed by reports from Reuters and Bloomberg. However, the claim about flights to the Middle East being exempt from the strike does not hold as Lufthansa has suspended such flights due to security reasons, not exemptions from strikes. The strike's origin due to pension disputes is corroborated by sources like Aviation News. The opinion claim by a Lufthansa spokesperson regarding union demands remains subjective and has been scored accordingly.
