Air India Express, the airline owned by the Tata Group, has taken a serious step in response to the recent events that have caused major disruptions to their operations. According to sources within the airline, around 25 cabin crew members have been issued termination letters for reporting sick, which resulted in the cancellation of more than 90 flights. This action has sent a clear message to the remaining cabin crew members who have also been given an ultimatum to either return to duty by 4 pm on Thursday or face termination as well.
In addition, the airline has had to cancel an additional 60 flights for Thursday due to a shortage of available cabin crew. This has been a result of mass leaves taken by a group of cabin crew members as a form of protest against what they believe to be mismanagement at the airline. This has caused significant inconvenience to passengers who rely on the airline for their travel needs.
Currently, Air India Express has a total of around 1,400 cabin crew members, including approximately 500 at the senior level. However, over 200 of these cabin crew members have been reporting sick since Tuesday night as a form of protest. This has been a major cause of concern for the airline as it has resulted in a significant number of flight cancellations and has put a strain on their operations.
In light of these events, Air India Express has taken necessary steps to ensure that their operations run smoothly and efficiently. While the termination of cabin crew members may seem harsh, it is a necessary measure to maintain the standards and reputation of the airline. The management has also assured passengers that they are working towards resolving the issues and addressing the concerns of their employees. The airline remains committed to providing a safe and comfortable travel experience for their customers and apologizes for any inconvenience caused due to the recent disruptions.
