Air India puts in place contingency plan

As the Pilots crisis in Air India entered eight day on Tuesday, AI management has put out its contingency plan.

Under this plan, ten out of thirty four international routes have been cancelled. In addition, frequency of flights on eight routes has been reduced from seven to two per week.

Air India cancelled around 10 international flights from Delhi and Mumbai this morning.

Meanwhile, seven Air India unions in a letter to Singh have sought an end to the standoff between pilots and management.

Seeking Aviation Minister Ajit Singh’s intervention, the AI unions of engineers, cabin crew, commercial staff, and ground staff have blamed the merger for the ongoing crises.
