Your flight has been cancelled. That is what many Lufthansa passengers are hearing this Friday. The German airline has grounded about one-thousand flights--crippled by a 24-hour cabin crew strike. Some flights are expected to be cancelled on Saturday as well. Talks between the carrier and the union over wages are reportedly resuming today, but that's no comfort if you're hoping to fly.
