A short while ago, the union representing Lufthansa’s pilots has announced a strike action that is scheduled for Wednesday, March 18. It is scheduled to last for 24 hours, from 12:01a to 11:59p.
Details are not quite complete but it appears that the strike will threaten a fair amount of short and medium haul service flown by Lufthansa and Germanwings. According to LH, no other LH group airlines are affected by this.
Lufthansa will be publishing an updated timetable on Tuesday that will provide more details and additional flight information. Stay tuned.

Lufthansa today has sent their first Premium Economy equipped A380 into circulation when it departed Frankfurt and flew towards Houston.
For the next 2-3 weeks, Houston will see a fair amount of D-AIMF/Zurich (the specific A380 with the new PE seats). Beginning on April 9th, a Premium Economy equipped A380 will become a permanent fixture in Houston.
