According to “Bams”, a spokesman for the airline said that it was foreseeable that the amount of damage caused by the blockade in Frankfurt would be “significantly higher” than in previous such actions. According to “Bams”, Lufthansa had demanded a total of 740,000 euros in damages after previous occupations of the runways of three airports.
Activists from the group Last Generation had glued themselves to the Frankfurt airport grounds early on Thursday morning, and around 230 of 1,400 scheduled flights were cancelled, according to the operator Fraport. The action fuelled the debate that has been going on for months about tougher penalties for such actions.
