Hiring a courier to Germany could be more attractive at present than risking your parcel on board flights, as the threat of disruption looms in the country.

Leading German airline Lufthansa is hoping meetings with its pilots will be successful in avoiding a planned four day strike.

Industrial action could be set to hit the airline to the tune of more than 100 million euros, in this year alone, should the strikes go ahead.

Pilots union Vereinigung Cockpit is concerned about job security and pay, as Lufthansa expands its foreign facilities.

Many European airlines have witnessed industrial action of late, with British Airways and Aer Lingus being notable cases.

With all the uncertainty surrounding the scheduling of passenger and cargo flights, a courier to Germany with Parcel2go's European delivery service may well prove the most secure option for your goods.

Parcel delivery with Parcel2go's reputable partners such as ParcelForce, DHL, and FedEx normally reach major European cities within 48 hours.
