Air Canada reaches deal with flight attendant union to end strike, operations to gradually restart
TORONTO (AP) — Air Canada said Tuesday it will gradually restart operations after reaching an agreement with the union for 10,000 flight attendants to end a strike that disrupted the travel plans of hundreds of thousands of travelers.
The Canadian carrier said it expects to call off 500 flights by the end of Friday. Air Canada said it was suspending its schedule and trying to get passengers booked with other airlines to limit disruptions.
Travellers arriving at London's airport ahead of a strike that would ground all Air Canada and Rouge flights are questioning whether their return trip will be as trouble free.
