The airline said it would “gradually restart its operations” on Tuesday after it reached an agreement with the Canadian Union of Public Employees, which represents around 10,000 Air Canada flight attendants. The potential deal still has to be ratified. (The Logic)
Talking point: A tentative agreement offers more certainty for travellers, even if Air Canada CEO Michael Rousseau warned it could take a week or more before the company fully restores its operations. The company said it would work with travellers whose flights were cancelled, and offer full refunds or credit for future travel. On Monday, federal Labour Minister Patty Hajdu launched an investigation into whether flight attendants are properly compensated for their work. Air Canada shutdowns were estimated to cost the airline $60 million per day, and the company’s shares rose about one percentage point on Tuesday following the deal.
