KLM Flight Cancellations and Labor Disputes
AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - KLM, the Dutch arm of airline group Air France KLM, will cancel 100 flights on Wednesday after ground crew announced a two hour-strike, a spokesperson for KLM said on Tuesday, confirming a report by Dutch News Agency ANP.
Impact on Passengers
The cancelled flights will affect 27,000 passengers, the spokesperson added.
Details of the Strike
KLM reached an agreement with some labour unions last week, but ongoing labor disputes on a collective labour agreement continue as the two unions that were not part of the deal said they would move forward with strike action.
Ongoing Labor Negotiations
A two-hour strike by ground staff is planned Wednesday morning, followed by a four-hour strike next Wednesday, September 17, also in the morning.
