KLM, the Dutch arm of airline group Air France, will cancel 100 flights on Wednesday after ground crew announced a two-hour strike, a spokesperson for KLM said on Tuesday, confirming a report by Dutch News Agency ANP.
The cancelled flights will affect 27,000 passengers, the spokesperson added.
KLM reached an agreement with some labour unions last week, but ongoing labour disputes on a collective labour agreement continue as the two unions that were not part of the deal said they would move forward with strike action.
A two-hour strike by ground staff is planned Wednesday morning (10 September), followed by a four-hour strike next Wednesday, 17 September, also in the morning.
KLM's website says that if you're journey is cancelled or you miss a connecting flight, the airline will automatically book you on the next available alternative one. The company said it apologises for any inconvenience to passengers.
