In so far toughest labor dispute of Company history control the Lufthansa and the pilots’ union Vereinigung Cockpit (VC) to a solution.

The VC appeared ready to the overall settlement offered by the Group. “Now you have a swift arbitrator found, the details and contents are adapted to the arbitration,” said VC spokesman Markus Wahl. Until the end of July should be explored with Lufthansa ways to solve the various conflicts. From the beginning of the arbitration until the end of July the VC renounce strikes.

Lufthansa welcomed the decision. You’ll quickly go to the union to discuss details such as the exact schedule, said a Lufthansa spokesman. Lufthansa CEO Carsten Spohr had the VC the total settlement to the shareholders’ meeting in late April offered. Since April 2014, there had been twelve strike laps, which cost the company claims to more than 300 million euros.

The company has argued are the VC six collective agreements open, including the content, to the transitional care and the occupational pensions of approximately 5400 pilots of companies Lufthansa, Lufthansa Cargo and German Wings. Only the treaties to the barely affordable pension commitments had been canceled by Lufthansa. Background is also the controversial introduction of new low-cost platform Euro Wings, which is criticized by the VC, but can not be the subject of collective bargaining as a business decision.
