With a possible flight attendant strike looming, Air Canada is warning that it might be impossible for some passenger to rebook their cancelled flights in an acceptable time frame.<\/p>\n
“A planned strike by CUPE, the union representing 10,000 flight attendants at Air Canada and Air Canada Rouge, is expected to begin Saturday, Aug. 16 at 01:00 ET,” the airline\u00a0wrote on its website<\/a>.<\/p>\n “To provide our customers with certainty, we have begun a phased wind-down of most of our operations, to be completed over the next two days.”<\/p>\n Air Canada is cautioning passengers that they may have difficulties keeping their current booking.<\/p>\n “If you opt to keep your current booking and your flight is cancelled due to a labour disruption, Air Canada will attempt to rebook you on another flight, including those operated by other airlines,” the airline wrote.<\/p>\n “However, available capacity on our airline and on other carriers is limited due to the summer travel peak, meaning the possibility of rebooking you within an acceptable timeframe is low. If your travel is disrupted, you can always choose a refund.”<\/p>\nAir Canada Warns That Due to ‘Available Capacity’ on Other Carriers, the Possibility of ‘Rebooking You Within an Acceptable Timeframe Is Low’<\/h3>\n
