6th September would give me a chuckle - I'm booked on a LX long haul (which looks fairly open right now) that day - but with LH going on strike, it would make for a lovely airport fight for whatever left on LX.

I am flying LH on the 3rd, 8th, 10th, 12th, 26th, and 29th, so a strike between the 12th and about the 23rd or 24th would be ideal for me.
Seems to me if there is a job action the first week in September, those here in this thread will have a lot of experiences to report...

Is this possible strike for September and/ or for October as well?

I created a Doodle so everybody can inform LH and the Pilots Union.
And I second that the 6th would be a very bad idea.

The Doodle should include your status, so that HON counts 3x, SEN 2x, FTL/*G 1x

Flying LH the 6th AND 7th on a UA award. A strike that weekend would likely be a disaster for me. I was hoping for more than 24 hours notice because I don't think that will help me at all.

New negotiations have been set for Thursday.
I wouldn't expect a strike this week.
