Lufthansa Exits Cityline and Verdi Negotiates Tariffs

Lufthansa, the German airline giant, is taking further steps towards exiting Cityline, its subsidiary that operates city flights. The impact of this move on the aviation industry is yet to be fully understood, but it is noteworthy due to its potential implications.

Cityline's exit from Lufthansa might lead to changes in city flight operations, as the company is a significant player in this sector. Lufthansa's decision comes at a time when Verdi, a union representing workers in various sectors, including the aviation industry, has claimed collective bargaining rights for "Pilots and Cabin Crew" of City Airlines.

Meanwhile, Verdi has initiated negotiations for tariffs for city airlines, which could have far-reaching implications for the aviation sector. These negotiations could potentially affect wages and working conditions in the industry, as well as the pricing structure of city flights.

In a separate development, Lufthansa has been under scrutiny for its 2 Clicks for More Privacy feature. Activating this feature may transmit data to third parties, including Facebook, Twitter, Flattr, Google, Xing, Pinterest, and LinkedIn. However, it's important to note that the information transmitted is not connected to these platforms, but rather used to send recommendations.

The data transmitted through the 2 Clicks for More Privacy feature may be stored abroad, but Lufthansa does not provide details on where the stored data might be located. This has raised concerns about data privacy and potential breaches.
