💨 Abstract

Air Canada faces a potential complete shutdown as 10,000 flight attendants, represented by the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE), plan to strike if a deal isn't reached by Saturday. This could disrupt 130,000 daily travelers and strand 25,000 Canadians abroad. Conflict centers on pay raises, with no resolution despite eight months of negotiations. Air Canada has already canceled hundreds of flights and may impose a lockout.
