A Strike at nine German airports by about 1,000 airport security workers demanding better terms disrupted air travel on Monday morning. About 1,000 of the 15,000 airport security workers took part in strikes that began between 5 am and 6 am local time and lasted until about 9 am.
The strikes affected airports in Frankfurt, Berlin, Hamburg, Hanover, Stuttgart, Dusseldorf, Bremen, Cologne/Bonn and Baden-Baden/Karlsruhe. German media reports said Cologne-Bonn had massive delays with long waits at security check-in points. The union wants fewer limited-term contracts for workers and unified working conditions at all German airports.
