MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 22 (UPI) -- Minneapolis-based Northwest Airlines continued to operate Monday, the third full day of a strike by its U.S. mechanics.
While the carrier acknowledged some delays and cancellations, the Aircraft Mechanics Fraternal Association said the company was hiding the true scope of service disruptions, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reported Monday.
Northwest had about 1,380 flights scheduled Sunday, up from about 1,215 on Saturday.
The airline has an average of 1,473 daily flights scheduled for the coming week.
The full picture of Northwest's performance may not be known until October, when the U.S. Department of Transportation releases August on-time performance measures for all airlines.
