The Vereinigung Cockpit (VC) pilots' union has called on its members at Eurowings Germany to strike on Thursday, 6 October 2022, between 00:01 and 23:59 hours.

Eurowings consists of two flight operations. Only flights operated by Eurowings Germany are affected by the strike call, not those operated by Eurowings Europe.

Eurowings is doing everything possible to minimise the impact of the strike action on passengers. The airline expects to be able to operate around half of its normal flight programme. In addition to Eurowings Europe, the airline can also rely on partners of the Lufthansa Group.

Passengers are asked to keep themselves informed about the status of their flight.

Passengers whose flight will not take place due to the strike should be informed about alternative transportation by early afternoon, Wednesday, 5 October 2022, at the latest.
