Due to the call for strikes by the Verdi union on Friday, February 17, 2023, Dortmund Airport cannot maintain regular flight operations. The airport is asking the affected passengers not to come to the airport at all.
Three employment groups were called on by Verdi to walk out at seven German commercial airports on Friday. This has serious effects, because Frankfurt am Main and Munich also have to suspend regular flight operations. Dortmund also announced that no flights could be handled in view of the industrial action.
