Berlin

WORKERS at two airports in Berlin said on Monday that they have extended a walkout over pay that has grounded almost all flights out of the German capital. Service workers' union Verdi on Sunday said it would call ground personnel out on strike just two days after their last walkout on Friday, stepping up action in a pay dispute that has already caused the cancellation of around 1,000 flights.

A spokesman for Berlin airports said that almost all flights would be cancelled on Monday - 194 at Schoenefeld and 448 in Tegel.
