Of the flights scheduled until 17:00 today, the first ten days of a strike called by the Trade Union of Civil Aviation Pilots (SPAC), 69.75 % took place, said the spokesman TAP, Carina Correia.
 

According to the same source, “on flights operated by TAP equipment, 155 were performed and 31 canceled, while on flights Portugalia equipment took place 11 and 41 were canceled.”

In percentage terms, the TAP there were 83.3% of flights and in Portugalia, 21.1%, resulting in greater adherence to strike in Portugalia.

According to Carina Correia, this fact “it is strange, since the replacement seniority and compliance with the 1999 agreement,” which gives pilots the right to a stake in the company in connection with the privatization, “does not apply to Portugalia.”

Also according to the spokesman TAP, flights booked until 17:00 represent “75-80% of the planned operation, since there are just over 300 flights scheduled in all day, or to midnight “.

Contacted by Lusa, the SPAC has not advanced new figures for stoppage which began at midnight, in protest by pilots consider that the government is not meeting the agreement signed in December 2014, or the 1999
