PARIS, Sept. 22 (UPI) -- Air France pilots enter their second week on strike after what the company called its last offer was rejected.
The pilots' union, the National Syndicate of Airline Pilots (SNPL), went on strike after the parent company of Air France, Air France-KLM, announced a cost-cutting program that would transfer operations in Europe to its low-cost airline, Transavia. The union said the move would outsource jobs to countries with lower taxes and less expensive labor.
