‘No Covid-19 vaccine for flying crew, will stop work’: Air India pilots warn management

In a letter, the Air India Airbus pilot’s union has warned the management that they will stop work if Air India fails to set up Covid-19 vaccination camps on a national level for the flying crew in the 18-44 age group on priority, HT has learnt.

The letter read, “It is disheartening to witness the top management make a mockery of pilots discharging their duties in a risky environment. We were hoping that Air India would not let down the crew and their families who stand by the nation during this pandemic… We feel let down by the self-serving approach of the management, which sees no injustice in organising vaccine camps at few bases but excludes pilots.”
