The union of international air transport companies announced a strike

Argentina's aviation unions announced a 24-hour strike Wednesday over wage increases, affecting more than 24,000 scheduled travelers. Argentine Airlines has cancelled 331 domestic and international flights, with operating losses of about $2 million.

The union clash began last week. Argentine airlines and ground service company Intercargo had proposed a 12 percent pay rise, but three aviation unions said it was simply not enough. Representatives of the APLA, APA and UPSA demanded that pay rises exceed inflation, or at least 70 percent.

Although the strike involved Air Argentina personnel, it also involved employees of Intercargo, which provides ground handling services for other airlines.

According to media reports, Ezeiza and Aeroparque will remain open on the same day, but the operation of branches depends on the availability of each airline and its employees.

Air Argentina said through a notice that all terminal offices would be closed on the day of the strike. "Passengers are requested not to travel to the airport or branch office on the same day because there is no reception from on-site staff."

国际空运公司工会宣布罢工

       因不满薪资涨幅，阿根廷多个航空工会宣布于本周三发起24小时的罢工，影响到超过2.4万名已计划出行的旅客。阿根廷航空公司已取消了331架次国内和国际航班，运营损失约为200万美元。

       据悉，工会冲突始于上周。阿根廷航空公司和地勤服务公司Intercargo曾提出了12%的涨薪提议，不过3个航空工会认为根本不够。航空公司飞行员协会(APLA)、航空人员协会(APA)及商业航空公司高级职员联合会(UPSA)的代表要求薪资涨幅必须超过通胀水平，即至少要上调70%。

       尽管罢工的是阿根廷航空公司的人员，不过也涉及为其他航空公司提供地勤服务的Intercargo公司的职员。

       据媒体报道，埃塞萨国际机场(Ezeiza)和Aeroparque在当天仍会开放，不过分支机构的运行则取决于每家航空公司和员工的可用性。

       阿根廷航空公司通过一份公告表示，罢工当天所有航站楼的办公室都将关闭。“请乘客当天不要前往机场或分支机构，因为没有现场工作人员的接待。”
