The airline has further announced that some flights in June will be merged. Specifically, the Muscat-Kozhikode and Muscat-Thiruvananthapuram flights on June 8 and 9 will operate as combined services.
Last week, five Air India Express flights from Kannur were also canceled, affecting routes to Sharjah (SHJ), Dammam, Dubai, Riyadh (RUH), and Abu Dhabi (AUH). Additionally, two flights from Nedumbassery were suspended.
Earlier reports indicate that Kannur airport incurred a loss of five crores due to the Air India (AI) Express cabin crew strike, which disrupted the travel plans of over four thousand passengers.
The strike was resolved after discussions in Delhi (DEL) between the employees’ association and Air India representatives, overseen by the Chief Labor Commissioner (Central). During these talks, Air India management agreed to address the employees’ demands.
Initially, 30 employees received dismissal notices for causing passenger inconvenience, company embarrassment, and significant financial loss. However, following the negotiations, these notices were retracted.
