A strike at München Airport in February 2023 severely disrupted travel plans for three Finnish passengers en route to München. Their journey was halted immediately upon arrival at the airport due to the industrial action. The case initially went to Pirkanmaa District Court in February 2025, but the ruling was appealed. The Turku Court of Appeal overturned the previous district court decision in October 2026, ruling in favor of the passengers. The central issue revolved around Air Baltic’s refusal to compensate passengers for the disrupted travel. The Court of Appeal delivered a strong ruling against the airline, affirming passenger rights in the face of unforeseen travel disruptions.
