AGP Executive Report
Last update: 3 hours agoWestJet Strike Disrupts Summer Travel: WestJet’s 4,400 flight attendants walked off the job after talks with CUPE 8125 failed, forcing the airline to cancel hundreds of flights and grounding much of its network during a busy long weekend, with travelers reporting long queues and scrambling to rebook. Labor Pay Fight: CUPE says the offer—about a 13% pay increase plus a “duty pay premium”—doesn’t cover unpaid pre- and post-flight work, while WestJet says it proposed an hourly rate covering all time around flights and is offering refunds or re-accommodation. Israel Route Uncertainty: American Airlines extended cancellations to Ben-Gurion (JFK–TLV) until at least March 2027 and also paused Doha service until January 2027, citing regional unrest and leaving travelers to adjust plans. Cargo Expansion in the Philippines: Skyway Airlines plans to grow from three Boeing 737-400Fs to 10 freighters by 2030, adding a Boeing 767-300F and targeting new regional and international routes. Safety Incidents: A sightseeing crash in Slovakia killed three, while two separate plane crashes hit Blackfoot Airport in Idaho, including one fatal crash that killed the pilot. Route Return to Israel: Condor launched daily Frankfurt–Tel Aviv service, signaling a cautious restart amid renewed regional tension.
