Air Canada says illegal job action' by pilots causing delays cancellations




TORONTO - Air Canada says an "illegal job action" by some of its pilots is causing cancellations and delays across the country.
The airline issued a Canada-wide travel alert this morning, warning "airport disruptions" could affect flights all day and into the weekend.
Spokesman Peter Fitzpatrick says about 30 flights have been cancelled out of the roughly 1,500 scheduled each day.
He wouldn't confirm the nature of the job action, but various media reports say a small group of pilots are staging a "sick-in" to express their displeasure with airline management.
The Air Canada Pilots Association has reportedly urged members to go to work as usual and disregard pilots who want colleagues to book off sick.
Air Canada (TSX:AC.A) has been embroiled in several labour disputes over the past few months, including with its 3,000 pilots.
In March, federal Labour Minister Lisa Raitt referred disputes with the pilots and Air Canada's 8,600 ground crew to the Canada Industrial Relations Board.
A back-to-work bill was passed in mid-March, but some ground workers staged a wildcat strike on March 23 that affected several Air Canada flights.
Fitzpatrick says the company "is making every effort to re-accommodate affected customers on alternate flights."
