An internal document of Lufthansa Group, to which Austrian Airlines also belongs, warns of critical actions by the organization “Last Generation” – not on the ground, but on board the planes, reports the electronic edition of the newspaper “Kronen Zeitung”.
The climate activist spiral of escalation continues — and may reach a new, risky level. Because according to an internal security document of the company, in the future the activists plan to hold actions on airplanes as well.
In any case, the letter stated that the activists could sneak aboard regular tickets during the peak summer season. With the intention of disrupting or even disrupting air traffic.
Until now, the “Last Generation” had concentrated on protests in front of the airport exits or on the runways themselves, as was the case just a few days ago in Vienna, when an activist was arrested just before boarding the plane, writes BTA.
If, for example, paint or other liquid is spilled on board a tourist plane, it is extremely dangerous for security. In response to an inquiry by Krone, however, Austrian Airlines remains silent “as it is a matter of safety”.
