Mallorca flights hit by strikes

FLIGHTS to and from both Frankfurt and Munich on Lufthansa to Palma on April 27 were cancelled due to a strike of airport workers including security and fire fighters in Germany who are demanding more pay.

Other airlines were not apparently affected, although there were some minor delays from other German cities and there was some condemnation of the strikes as pay negotiations were due to commence the following day. 

Thursday April 28 could see greater disruption as French air traffic controllers are also on strike yet again (reported as being the 44^th in seven years) which will have a knock on effect on all international flights which would normally cross French air space.
