Warning Strike, Flights Cancelled - Austria

Austrian Airlines cancelled at least 150 flights across the country on 7 & 8 March. The airlines’ flying staff unions announced a warning strike on 7 March to demand inflation compensation. A workers meeting, initially planned for 8 March was postponed. It is undetermined when the meet will be held. Flights may continue to be cancelled until further notice. Failed negotiations may lead to an indefinite strike.

Advice

Unless the strike is averted by negotiations, expect and prepare for sudden cancellations or severe delays at airports.

Contact the airline (https://www.austrian.com/fr/en/flight-status-and-timetable#/) to stay informed about the status of your flights, potential disruptions or changes in schedule. Consider alternate airlines or reschedule plans to minimize inconvenience. If affected by cancellations, know your compensation rights.
