Lufthansa customers now have more planning security: In the last few weeks, entire flight schedules have had to be canceled at short notice. That's over now - at least for almost a year. Because by next summer, pilot strikes will be a thing of the past.

Almost a week after their agreement, the AUA mother and the pilots' union Vereinigung Cockpit published the first details: A "comprehensive" peace obligation applies until the end of June 2023. Strikes are excluded during this period. In addition, the airline’s pilots will each receive an additional 2022 euros in basic monthly salary retrospectively from August 2023 and April 490.

In the period up to June 2023, a "constructive exchange on various topics" had also been agreed, the airline said. “The good monetary result is pleasing, but we are also pleased that we were able to take another step towards a more sustainable partnership. We are currently on the right track with Lufthansa," says Marcel Gröls, Chairman of Collective Bargaining at VC.

Last Tuesday, the Cockpit Association gave up another strike on Wednesday at the last second after an agreement had been reached in talks with the Lufthansa management. Neither side initially gave any details at this time.
