MONTREAL — WestJet has pushed back its planned integration of Sunwing Airlines, a move that represents a setback for the Calgary-based company after acquiring the leisure carrier last year.

In an email, WestJet said it will weave the discount airline's fleet into its own by late April, six months after the integration date initially set for Oct. 26 of this year.

Wrangling over worker seniority for pilots slated to fly under the same banner remains a point of contention, said John Gradek, who teaches aviation management at McGill UniversityThe two sets of pilots are represented by different labour groups — the Air Line Pilots Association at WestJet and Unifor at Sunwing.

WestJet acquired Sunwing's main airline and vacation divisions last May in a major consolidation of the Canadian aviation market. Sunwing Vacations will continue as a separate brand.
