Air India pilots have raised concerns over their pay cut announced due to nationwide lockdown. The Indian Pilots Guild (IPG) comprising of Boeing fleet pilots and Indian Commercial Pilots Association (IPCA) in a letter to its chairman and managing director Rajiv Bansal on Friday said that the pay cut on allowance is unequal and not acceptable to them.
This comes after the airline announced 10% cut of the cabin crew and pilots flying allowance, few days after the lockdown was announced.
The letter read, “By effecting a 10% cut on allowances for all employees, the category that has been affected the most are pilots.”
