WestJet Flight Attendants Strike Over Pay | Austin News

from Austin News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

WestJet’s 4,400 flight attendants walked off the job over unpaid ground time, sparking cancellations of 300+ flights and chaos for travelers — especially over the long weekend. The union demands fair compensation, while WestJet defends its “credit hour” system and touts a historic pay offer. Both sides say they’re open to returning to negotiations, but past strikes like Air Canada’s show this issue is far from settled — and it’s likely to keep flying in the headlines.
