Stuttgart Airport: Effects still unclear
According to the airport company, around 50 take-offs and just as many landings are currently planned at Stuttgart Airport. It was not initially clear how many of these flights would be canceled or diverted because of the warning strike. “We strongly encourage travelers to check flight status with the airline before heading to the airport,” said an airport spokeswoman.
