Lufthansa ? Was ist loss ??
 

Is this deafening silence hiding the clinging of armours and swords or do I hear the pen's screeching on the new contract ?

..the so called "Urabstimmung" is running at the moment, which lets allunion members decide (vote) on futher strike action.. As far as I know this will be running till the 5th of May when the fight goes into the next round...

According to the VC website,the ballot closes at mid-day 3rd may and a press conference is scheduled for 1500hrs the same day.If they have 70% in favour they are legally allowed to stike indefinately.
Good luck to all our colleages at lufthansa/Condor/Lufthansa Cargo.

Yes Wallabie,

its the clinging of armours and swords!

We´ve got about 2 hrs to go (1300 UTC) until the results of the ballots are counted out.

First rumours state, that the results are 90%+!

Will keep you informed!

los not loss
