The World : 50 Mexico Flights Canceled

Mexico’s two state-owned airlines, Aeromexico and Mexicana Airlines, canceled more than 50 flights during the weekend because of an unexplained work stoppage, the Mexico City News reported. Twenty-six flights were canceled Friday and an equal number Saturday, while 90% of arrivals and departures were delayed. The airline pilots’ union said some pilots arrived late for flights or refused to fly as part of a pay raise demand. Flight controllers attributed the delays to faulty equipment.
