KLM employees planning additional work stoppages
KLM, the Dutch national airline, is facing disruptions to its flight schedule due to a strike by its ground staff. The strikes, which began earlier this month and are set to continue on September 24 and October 1, are a result of unmet wage demands.
On Tuesday, around 100 flights of KLM were canceled due to the strike, causing significant inconvenience for passengers. The FNV union, one of the most significant unions representing KLM ground staff, has announced that the strikes will continue on the mentioned dates.
So far, KLM has reached agreements with some unions but not with the two most significant ones, the FNV union and an unspecified other union. The ongoing negotiations between KLM and the FNV union remain focused on wage demands.
The strikes are causing disruptions to KLM's flight schedule, potentially affecting travel plans for passengers. It's important for passengers to check the status of their flights before traveling to the airport.
This will be the second strike by KLM's ground staff this month, following an earlier strike on an unspecified date. The strikes on September 24 and October 1 are expected to have a similar impact on the airline's operations.
It's worth noting that no specific German-language information is available about which KLM unions’ wage demands the company has not met, nor about potential strikes on September 24 or October 1, 2025. Current reports only confirm a strike by KLM ground staff at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport on September 17, 2025 due to wage disputes, with dozens of flights being canceled.
KLM has not released a statement regarding the impact of these strikes on its overall operations or any plans to mitigate the disruptions. Passengers are advised to stay updated on the status of their flights and to contact KLM's customer service for more information.
