Korean Air sees flights cancelled because of pilot strike
Korean Air has issued a schedule of anticipated flight cancelations through Jan 10, 2017, because of strike action by its unionised pilots. The carrier says the impact on operations is minimal; the majority of domestic and international flights are running normally, as is mandated by govt law. Flights that are affected include some to the Middle East and Japan and some domestic flights. The pilots are seeking a significant salary increase. Korean Air achieved a net profit of KRW428b (US$378m) for Q3, but that followed a period of losses, including a Q2 net loss of KRW251b and a 2015 Q3 loss of KRW510b. <br/>
