Comair confident planned Numsa strike won't affect operations

JOHANNESBURG - Comair, which operates British Airways and Kulula, says that it is continuing talks with Numsa in a last effort to avoid the union's planned strike on Thursday.

The airline said that it will also be appearing before the Labour Court at 10am to try to get an interdict to halt the strike."The number of staff that could potentially strike is about 300 and Comair has a staff contingent of 2,200 people. SO we're fairly confident that we will have continuous operations."

Well...so far our BA flight to PE is delayed by 4 hours...so not entirely sure this is accurate. Also they were kind enough to let us know when we lining up to get on the flight. Not great service.
