Finnish airline Finnair has announced that it is forced to cancel nearly 300 flights in December due to a protest by the Finnish Pilots' Union (SLL). This was reported by Yle, according to UNN.

Details

As part of the strike, pilots will not fly on December 9 and 13. 

According to the carrier, the consequences will affect about 33 thousand Finnair customers.

We are very sorry that the union chose to protest instead of negotiate, which will affect the plans of thousands of our customers during the Christmas season,

- Jaakko Shildt, Managing Director of Finnair, commented on the situation.

According to him, the carrier does everything possible to help customers, for example, offering them alternative flights if possible.

Recall

The Boeing union has approved a new labor agreement, ending a 7-week strike by 33,000 workers. The agreement provides for a 38% pay raise over four years.
