Air strikes make many unsure whether the holiday will go as planned. A strike has ended, but one is still ongoing. On Tuesday morning, a total of 11 flights were canceled as a result of the strike at Norwegian and Widerøe. SAS has no canceled departures due to the strike, so far, but all three airlines fear it may affect more in the future. May be more All three airlines state that there may be more cancellations or canceled flights during the day due to the strike and that it is an uncertain situation. They emphasize that they will continuously update their customers. The Norwegian Aircraft Technician Organization (NFO) has per night until Tuesday taken out 106 of its more than 400 members on strike. Another 39 technicians will go on strike from Friday 24 June if no solution is agreed by that time. Jan Skogseth, leader of the Norwegian Aircraft Technician Organization (NFO), confirms this to news. – We are really stuck right now. I perceive NHO Luftfart as not very interested in real negotiations, says Skogseth to news. Far apart There was a break in the mediation between NHO Luftfart and the Norwegian Aircraft Technician Organization (NFO) at 03.50 on Saturday morning. – The mediator stated that the parties were so far apart that there was no basis for submitting a proposal that could be expected to be recommended by both parties, says mediator Carl Petter Martinsen at the Ombudsman. The CEO of NHO Luftfart believes that the financial demands from the aircraft technicians were unreasonable, and far from what the airlines and employers can meet. – We are very disappointed that we are now entering into a conflict due to unrealistic demands for a group that already has good wage conditions at the bottom, says CEO Torbjørn Lothe in NHO Luftfart. The general supplement in the front subject was four kroner per hour. NFO basically requires NOK 60 per hour. It would have given a wage increase of approx. 18 percent. – What would have been reasonable was if they adapted to other groups in society, and a wage settlement that is at a reasonable level that the Norwegian economy allows for, Lothe says to news 18, June. Ground crews agreed on four kroner an hour The mediation of the flight agreement between Fellesforbundet and NHO Luftfart, Fellesforbundet states in a press release on Tuesday night. Thus, there was no strike among ground crews. The agreement entails a general supplement to everyone covered by the agreement of NOK 4 per hour. – We are pleased to have arrived in port after a demanding mediation, with good assistance from the mediator. Now we have come to a solution that gives our members a pay rise that we hope they can give their support to, says bargaining leader Dag-Einar Sivertsen in Fellesforbundet.
