Jet Airways pilots on Sunday deferred their April 1 strike plan by another two weeks, hoping that their salary dues would be cleared by then.
At separate open houses in Mumbai and Delhi conducted by their union, the National Aviators Guild (NAG), members decided against going on strike.
Their decision came hours after the airline credited 87.5% of pending dues of their December salaries. “Pilots have decided that time be given to the new interim management till April 14 to clear salary dues,” a communication sent to the 1,100-odd NAG members said.
