MUMBAI: Around 1,100 pilots belonging to crisis-hit Jet Airways' pilots frame National Aviator's Guild (NAG) have made up our minds to not fly from 10 am Monday in protest towards "non-payment of salary dues", a source stated Sunday.
The pilots together with engineers and senior control have now not won salaries since January. The debt-ridden carrier has also now not paid March salary to employees of different categories as smartly.
"As on today, we have not been paid for nearly three-and-a-half months and we don't know when we will be paid. So we have decided to go ahead with our call of no-flying from April 15. All 1,100 pilots of NAG will stop flying from 10 am Monday," stated a Guild source.
The NAG, which claims representation of around 1,100 pilots of the overall 1,600 with the whole provider carrier, had in past due March referred to as for no flying from April 1 over non-payment of salaries.
However, on March 31 it deferred the agitation to April 15, saying it wanted to give extra time to the brand new control.
Jet Airways is at this time below the control control of SBI-led consortium of lenders after the approval of a debt-rejig plan last month, which also led its founder chairman Naresh Goyal to give up.
