WestJet Flight Attendants Issue Strike Notice Amid Negotiations
The Canadian Union of Public Employees, representing 4,400 flight attendants at WestJet, has issued a 72-hour strike notice, potentially leading to a strike during the busy summer travel season. The union and WestJet remain far apart on key issues, with the union emphasizing the need for changes and a fair deal. WestJet has responded by issuing a 72-hour lockout notice, indicating that job action could begin as soon as Sunday if no agreement is reached. The airline, which operates over 600 flights daily, is actively negotiating to avoid disruptions. The potential strike could significantly impact travel plans, especially during a long weekend in Canada.
