TIL Desk/Business/Mumbai/ The umbrella body of domestic pilots of crisis-hit Jet Airways Tuesday threatened to stop flying from April 1 unless there is clarity on the resolution process and salary dues by end of this month.
As problems mount at the airline, the National Aviator’s Guild (NAG) also expressed hope that a resolution plan would be reached by month-end. The guild, which came into being almost a decade ago, represents around 1,000 domestic pilots.
“If there is no proper clarity on the resolution process and salary payments, by March 31, we will stop flying from April 1,” the guild said in a statement. The decision was taken at the annual meeting of the NAG here that went on for more than 90 minutes.
More than 200 pilots marched to Jet Airways’ headquarters here after the meeting, which was held at a nearby hotel. NAG President Karan Chopra said the grouping would be informing the management of their decision.
“As far as the dues are concerned, we have been paid only 12.5 per cent of December salary and rest 87.5 per cent is yet to be paid while full salary salary of January and February have not been paid till now,” he said.
