WestJet and the Canadian Union of Public Employees representing 4,400 flight cabin crew reached a tentative agreement Monday morning. This means an end to the strike and lockout notices, according to a news release shared by the airline. The agreement will now go to union members for a ratification vote. WestJet flight attendants walked off the job Sunday morning at 2 a.m. after 11 months of negotiations failed to bring about a tentative agreement between the airline and cabin crew. Key issues in negotiation were fair wage and pay compensation for pre-flight duties, including ground tasks. This is a breaking news story. More details to come.
