Lufthansa pilots plan to go on strike again next month. The strike is due to begin on 13 April and last four days.

Unions are asking for more pay and guarantees that the management of the German airline is not planning dismissals.

Last month, pilots went on a one-day strike. Two thousand flights were scrapped and thousands of passengers left stranded.

Lufthansa has become Europe’s largest airline, putting Air-France KLM in second place.

Nevertheless, the airline’s results are under pressure, as they are elsewhere in the sector.
