Flight disruptions expected as Aerolineas Argentinas pilots announce protests
Flight cancellations and delays are expected in the coming days and weeks as Aerolineas Argentinas pilots announced protest plans for August 2024.
The announcement, made through the Airline Pilots Association (APLA), said that pilot members have been negotiating wage increases with the airline in line with inflation for months, but have not received fair responses or proposals.
