A huge amount of cancelled Lufthansa flights tomorrow (17 Feb) at FRA and MUC due to strike action.

[EDIT] - it would appear that it's not just Lufthansa that are affected, but most flights operating to/from FRA and MUC.

Suggestion is that key routes from the two hubs that are currently operated by Eurowings will switch to the new subsidiary so as to retain the Lufthansa branding however operate with a lower cost base that the airline will have.
