Illum newspaper reports on high-level meetings called by the finance ministry with the General Workers Union, which represents the majority of employees at the national airline.
Air Malta has an uncertain future ahead of it after posting its very first summer losses this year, in what was otherwise described as a ‘record year’ for tourism.
The GWU is demanding information on the state of the company, which employs 1,500 employees. Also interested in the discussions are the Airline Pilots Association (ALPA) which run their own union and will be meeting the finance minister.
Julia Farrugia is a former editor of Illum newspaper.
