WestJet flight attendants are wrapping up their vote on a tentative agreement that includes a more than 18 percent wage hike over three years and new compensation for ground work.

Flight attendants at WestJet have initiated a strike after negotiations between their union and the airline broke down without reaching an agreement.

'Our goal remains the same as it has been from the beginning: to reach a fair, negotiated, collective agreement,' Alia Hussain, president of CUPE 8125 says

WestJet flight attendants have achieved a new deal that includes an 18% wage hike and compensation for preboarding work, as confirmed by their union.

Flight attendants at Canada's WestJet have gone on strike due to an ongoing dispute over pay, impacting the airline's operations.

The union representing WestJet flight attendants has served a 72-hour strike notice, indicating potential labor action. This development signals escalating tensions in ongoing negotiations between the union and the airline.

WestJet flight attendants have served a formal notice of dispute, raising concerns about 'unpaid work' and claiming they work 35 hours monthly without compensation, according to the Canadian Union of Public Employees.

WestJet flight attendants have initiated a strike, leading to the grounding of more than 300 flights over a long weekend, causing significant travel disruptions.

WestJet flight attendants have voted to strike as early as the August long weekend if a new deal is not reached. The strike action is contingent on the outcome of ongoing negotiations.
