After a 36-hour strike by the on-board staff of Austrian Airlines, operations are being gradually ramped up at Vienna Airport and some federal state airports. Delays are expected as the first flights depart from Vienna around 1 p.m. However, the dispute between the airline management and workforce continues, with plans for another works meeting on April 4th potentially leading to more absences.
A total of 400 flights were canceled by AUA on Maundy Thursday and Good Friday, affecting 50,000 passengers. The union is demanding wage adjustments to match those of the Lufthansa Group, a proposal that the company has not yet agreed to. There have been threats from the Lufthansa Group side if the demands are not scaled back.
The union has criticized the German side for not engaging in further talks and has not ruled out another strike. Despite this, they remain open to dialogue with the AUA management. Talks are ongoing at different levels, with no new negotiation date set. The ongoing dispute, which has lasted for weeks and seen multiple negotiations, could potentially lead to more flight cancellations if an agreement is not reached.
The workforce is planning another works meeting next Thursday, with the possibility of further absences. The focus remains on achieving fair treatment for Austrian employees within the Lufthansa Group, with both sides expressing willingness to find a mutually beneficial solution. Efforts to resolve the dispute continue as both parties work towards reaching an agreement.
