Air India has cancelled four international flights from Delhi and Mumbai as the strike by protesting pilots entered the 2nd day today. According to the Air India spokesperson, the cancelled flights are two each from Delhi and Mumbai. The spokesperson said that all other international flights are operating as the airline has put in place a contingency plan with the available pilots.

AIR Correspondent reports, around 200 Air India pilots owing allegiance to Indian Pilots Guild, IPG, had reported sick yesterday, resulting in cancellation of at least 13 international flights. The pilots have been protesting against rescheduling of Boeing 787 Dreamliner training.

Air India management had yesterday terminated the services of 10 office-bearers of the Indian Pilots' Guild, which is spearheading the strike, besides de-recognising the guild.
