The unions acknowledged the presence of inbound international flights and announced that the strike action at international terminals would commence on June 4th, 2024.

“All aviation workers should recognize the seriousness of this struggle and comply unfailingly. All branch officers of our unions shall ensure full compliance at all airports,” the statement added.

This directive from the aviation unions stems from the federal government’s failure to resolve issues related to salary increases and other pending demands with the two parent labor unions.
