Two new Newfoundland routes coming to Eastern Canada with Porter

Porter’s flight dispatchers in legal strike position as of Jan. 20

TORONTO — Porter Airlines’ flight dispatchers could be in a legal strike position as early as Jan. 20.

As reported last month, its three-dozen members voted 100% to give their union a strike mandate.

The carrier is also trying to hammer out first-time contracts with pilots and cabin crew.

Meanwhile, collective agreements with WestJet flight attendants and Air Canada mechanics and baggage handlers are expiring by the end of March.
