How will Jet Airways do justice to passengers?
Jet Airways today cancelled nearly 200 domestic and international flights as its pilots continued their agitation to protest sacking of two of their colleagues. "The situation continues .
there are no talks so far. We have not got any invite from the management side showing their willingness to talk to us," Capt Sam Thomas, Joint General Secretary of National Aviators Guild, which is spearheading the agitation, told PTI. He claimed that overall 500 pilots have reported sick.
A spokesperson of the airlines said it has cancelled 163 domestic and 35 international flights as 400 of its over 1000 pilots did not report for duty. To deal with the situation, the airlines has set up a crisis management centre which is continuously monitoring the situation.
At the crisis centre, a team of 15 personnel from planning, revenue management and PR is working round-the-clock to reschedule various flights and monitor the situation, the airline said. The airline operates 75 international flights and 300 domestic flights on a normal day.
