Air Transat's 2,100 flight attendants called to vote a third time
Air Transat's 2,100 flight attendants in Montreal and Toronto will once again be asked to vote, this time on a recommendation from the mediators involved in the case, and not on a tentative agreement. They do not intend to strike. These flight attendants, based in Montreal and Toronto, are members of a local chapter of the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) affiliated to the FTQ. A first agreement in principle to renew their collective agreement was reached in mid-December, when a strike was threatened for early January. But the members rejected it by 98.1%. No strike was called. The parties returned to the negotiating table in early January. A second agreement in principle was reached on Jan. 7. It was again rejected, this time by 81.9%.<br/>
