Chaos at Dusseldorf and Vienna airports Flight cancellations and huge queues Huge inconvenience for passengers
Chaos was experienced by passengers at Dusseldorf airport yesterday, Saturday, on the first day of school holidays for the state of North Rhine-Westphalia. The staff shortage, flight cancellations and operational problems at the baggage carousels caused huge queues and in some cases tension between employees and passengers.
The situation at Düsseldorf airport has been problematic for days, with Lufthansa estimating that operations will not return to their normal schedule until 2023.
Flight cancellations at Vienna
A similar situation is also prevailing these days at Vienna airport, where more than 60 flights were cancelled for the weekend, mainly due to the absence of employees who have been infected with coronavirus.
"The summer months will come out with ... ahh and bah," said vida union spokesman Daniel Liebhart, noting that the union had warned in time about the staff shortage, as 300 workers were laid off during the pandemic and only half were rehired.
