This morning the pilots and the cabin crew went on strike in SXF. 1st wave cancelled.

They are fighting for the implementation of a "Betriebrat" (negotiating body), which they are entitled to under German law.

Implementation of a Betriebsrat is pivotal for the crews in order to do proper negotiations on local contracts.

This is the second strike in Berlin since December.

The strike was organised by the Union "Verdi", which is one of the biggest Unions in the world..

If only the alright jacks in the UK would wake up and smell the coffee.

Because it would be illegal.
