Pilots reject the bid – a continued risk of flight chaos – Private Businesses

Swedish Pilots’ Association has chosen to reject it medlarbud presented by the Mediation Institute. It is clear from a press release Thursday night.

The reason that mediates the bid was rejected mean Swedish Pilots’ Association were to bid is below the requirements for improvements and wage increases that have been submitted.

One of the SPF: s main requirement is a common salary scale for the Swedish SAS pilots, which was not to be taken in the bid. Their Norwegian colleagues received the agreement signed with the SAS during the afternoon on Thursday, however, a common pay scale.

The second shortcoming SPF looking for mediators bid is that it does not provide a sufficiently clear agreement.

It alerted the conflict remain. Strike The move is set for Friday, June 10 at 18.00, if the parties do not reach an agreement on the new collective agreement.

Your rights during strikes

If the strike breaks out and the flight you would have gone to set the airline must help you with a number of things. Firstly, SAS does not leave you in the lurch, and you have the right to be ombokat to another flight. If that means long wait, the airline must offer food and drink during your wait. You will not be away that day, you have the right to hotel accommodation.

Another option is to get the money back. But keep in mind that if you choose a refund ceases airline’s responsibility to you.

According to EU regulations, you have to suffer cancellations entitled to financial compensation. It comes in the form of a lump sum compensation, but also things such as lost earnings, missed hotel accommodation etc. Compensation The right does not apply to so-called “extraordinary circumstances”. A strike can be such a factor but not always.

“It is important to remember that the company must also take all reasonable measures to avoid the cancellation. An assessment is made in each case, and it is up to the airline to prove that the exception applies, “writes Consumer Agency on its website.
