BERLIN—Pilots and cabin crew at Ryanair in Germany started a full-day walkout early on Sept. 12 to put pressure on management in labor talks with Europe’s biggest low-cost carrier.

Ryanair had said on Sept. 11 it would cancel 150 out of a total 400 flights scheduled to fly to and from Germany on Sept. 12 due to the strike and warned that such “wildcat” strikes would lead to job cuts if they continued.
