They claim force majeure, and repeatedly say that the circumstances were beyond their control. The cited law suggests otherwise.
The Helga Krüsemann ./. TUIfy was about a "wildcat strike". The UFO strike wasn't a "wildcat strike", but a "warning strike". A "warning strike" isn't a "wildcat strike", even if it's a last minute strike as well.
