Air Canada officials say they are in negotiations with the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA).
“Currently, our operations are not affected, and our flights are operating as scheduled,” Air Canada officials said on their website.
However, Air Canada officials say if you want to make alternate travel arrangements for your peace of mind, we implemented a policy on August 27, 2024, that allows you to change your flight for free if:
– You purchased an Air Canada ticket or redeemed points for an Aeroplan flight reward no later than September 9, 2024, for travel between September 15 and September 23, 2024.
– If you’re scheduled to travel during this period, you can retrieve your booking to change your flight, free of charge, to another date:
– Between September 9 and September 14, 2024, and/or
– Between September 24 and November 30, 2024.
“Rest assured that we will notify you of any impact to your flight itinerary in advance of your travel,” Air Canada officials say.
“If you purchased your ticket with Air Canada Vacations, a travel agent or an online travel agency and you don’t have access to our self-serve options, please reach out to them directly. Additionally, you can contact us anytime for assistance at 1-888-247-2262. If you’re travelling on an Aeroplan flight reward, call 1-800-361-5373. Note that wait times may be longer than expected as we work to assist our customers.”
