BERLIN (AP) — Flights at several German airports have been severely disrupted by the latest in a string of one-day strikes related to various pay disputes. The ver.di union called workers out on “warning strikes” at Berlin, Hamburg, Hannover and Bremen airports on Monday. Some 200 departures were canceled in Berlin on Monday, and about a third of the planned 200 arrivals were expected to be canceled. Hamburg airport said that all 123 planned departures during the strike were canceled and at least 50 of the 121 planned arrivals. The walkouts by airport staff come amid difficult pay talks for employees of Germany’s federal and municipal governments.
