Lufthansa expects to cancel around 130 flights on Monday and will not resume its full flight schedule for two weeks after a strike last week, a spokesman said.

Checks to aircraft had backed up during the strike over pay, which trade union Verdi ended on Saturday after reaching a wage deal with the airline on Friday.

From Tuesday, some 40 flights a day would be cancelled, of which around 35 would be European flights, Lufthansa said.

Lufthansa usually runs about 2,000 flights per day.
