Mango pilots on strike

Trade union Solidarity has stated that its members – 95% of the pilots at Mango – will go on strike from Monday morning.
 
6% is a bit low, but:
Cape Town – Mango Airlines made a net loss of R36.9m in the year ended March 2016, its most recent financial statements show

Unsure. Looking at the financials, Mango did increase revenue quite a bit though, loss incurred probably due to dollar denominated costs.

At least inflation is my guess.

Our work flights were served with a notice

Possible industrial action by Airlink cabin attendants (SATAWU)

Airlink was served with a notice by SATAWU earlier today that Airlink’s cabin attendants will embark on industrial action on Monday, 16 October 2017. Airlink management has devised a contingency plan to mitigate the effects of this action and has paid special attention to ensure continuity on the JNB-SIS and JNB-TFA routes in a bid to honour our obligations to Kumba.

The situation is however volatile at this point and it is difficult to predict what exactly will happen on Monday morning. We will remain in contact with you through the course of the weekend as information becomes available.

I will never fly mango again. The news reports that their pilots didn't arrive for work as they are on strike, and the mango spokesman says no flights have been affected.

Autonomous take off, cruise and landing. Lol

Cadets sitting behind controls waiting to intercept any mishaps
 
Gotta say I'm genuinely shocked by the lack of outrage. This being subsidiary of an SOC currently in ICU.
