STORYLINE:
Workers from German airline Lufthansa marched in Frankfurt amid a strike that grounded around a thousand flights on Thursday.
Footage showed thousands of flag-waving ground staff stopping outside Lufthansa Aviation Center where a general meeting was held earlier on Thursday.
Millions of travellers across Germany are being affected by strikes after two unions called for two-day walkouts over wages and work conditions.
Lufthansa said about 1,000 flights per day would have to be cancelled.
Around 80% of all long-distance trains as well as regional and commuter trains in the country were cancelled early Thursday as train drivers went on strike.
The strikes led to traffic jams in cities and on highways, a shortage of share and rental cars.
