Air Transat Pilots Vote for Strike, Canceling Flights

Air Transat, a Canadian airline, is facing potential strikes by its pilots, leading to flight cancellations. The pilots union issued a 72-hour strike notice, seeking better pay, benefits, and job security. Ninety-nine percent of pilots voted to authorize a strike, citing managements actions as the last resort. Air Transat, however, claims to have negotiated in good faith and made generous offers. Travelers with Air Transat flights scheduled for this week should check their flight status regularly. The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered. Hosted on Acast.
