It’s a case of déjà vu for regular Qantas Airways (ASX:QAN) passengers today, as baggage handlers and ground staff walk off the job again for the morning.
Today’s strike is expected to see more than 8,000 passengers kick their long weekend off with delayed or cancelled flights.
It has been an ongoing campaign for the airline’s members of the Transport Workers Union (TWU) against the airline, fighting for better pay and conditions. They are threatening to continue striking until December.
The airline said it was sorry the union was taking its grievances out on passengers. It also said the TWU had negotiated a new deal with Virgin which was 12 per cent lower than Qantas rates, putting Virgin at a competitive advantage.
Qantas Airways (ASX:QAN) reported a net profit of $249 million for the 2011 financial year.
