Land employees of KLM stopped on Wednesday between 8 a.m. and noon. On the Schiphol site you can see that dozens of KLM flights will not continue. According to the spokesperson, the number of victims are about the same as last week.
Last Wednesday’s promotion found 27,000 passengers. That strike lasted two hours. Then more than a hundred flights could not continue.
“We learned from experiences last week,” says the KLM spokesperson. “Based on that, we have optimized our process and thus further limit the nuisance, despite the longer duration of the strike.”

The unions require more fixed jobs, purchasing power retention and a heavy work scheme for all heavy professions. That is why employees now struck again.
