A majority of Lufthansa flights to and from Germany have been grounded, with more than 200,000 passengers likely to be affected this week.
The flight cancellations resulted from the 35-hour strike by Lufthansa's ground staff. The walkout by the staff began at 8pm on Monday at Frankfurt airport. Whereas at the Munich, Berlin, Duesseldorf, Hamburg, Cologne-Bonn and Stuttgart airports, the walkout started at 4am on Tuesday.
