Within weeks of Vistara flight cancellations when several pilots had called in sick, another Tataowned airline is in the midst of a similar crisis. Air India Express cancelled some 91 flights and delayed 102 since Tuesday after more than 100 cabin crew members reported sick. They are protesting "inequality" in their treatment compared to counterparts at AIX Connect, according to sources familiar with the matter.
Air India Express and AIX Connect (formerly AirAsia India) are subsidiaries of the Tata Group-owned Air India, which is in the process of merging to create a unified low-cost airline.
Air India Express and AIX Connect operate around 230 and 150 daily flights, respectively.
Last month, Vistara, which is getting merged with Air India, had to cancel 10 per cent of its flights amidst dissatisfaction of pilots with tight duty schedules and new salary package as part of the airline's merger into Air India.
