German trade union giant Verdi has called for strikes at eight German airports for the whole of Tuesday in a dispute over pay for security staff, reported dpa.
The strikes are to take place at airports in Frankfurt, Berlin, Bremen, Hamburg, Hanover, Stuttgart, Dusseldorf and Cologne/Bonn, the union announced on Monday in the capital.
Collective bargaining talks ended without result last week and were also accompanied by strikes. Last Monday and Tuesday, scores of departures were cancelled at several airports, including Germany's largest in Frankfurt.
A new round of negotiations has been set for Thursday.
Verdi is demanding, among other things, an hourly wage increase for airport security staff of at least €1 ($1.11) and that wages be brought into line across different regions.
