Air Canada Suspends Plans to Restart Operations after CUPE Defies CIRB Directive to Return to Work

Flight Operations Update: Air Canada has suspended its plan to resume flights after the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) directed flight attendants to defy a return-to-work order from the Canadian Industrial Relations Board, resulting in the cancellation of approximately 240 flights.

Customer Advisory: Passengers with cancelled flights are advised not to go to the airport and will be offered options such as full refunds or credits for future travel, while Air Canada Express flights operated by Jazz or PAL continue to operate normally.
