German union calls for strike Friday by Ryanair pilots
Four hour stop at German airports
21 December, 17:46
(ANSA) - BERLIN, 21 DIC - Cockpit union is calling on Ryanair
pilots based in Germany to walk off the job Friday morning,
charging that the airline staged a "publicity stunt" in offering
to hold negotiations. Ryanair said last Friday it was reversing
its longstanding refusal to recognize pilots' unions as it
worked to avert strikes in several European countries over the
busy Christmas season.
Cockpit union said Ryanair called off an opening round of
talks planned Wednesday at short notice on the grounds that it
rejected two of the five union officials taking part. Cockpit
called on pilots to strike from 5 a.m. to 9 a.m. at German
airports. (ANSA).
