The recent strike, which concluded on Tuesday, highlighted the ongoing issue regarding the compensation practices of many airlines, specifically the timing of when flight attendants begin to receive their pay.
Traditionally, flight attendants are not compensated until the aircraft doors are closed, a policy that has drawn criticism from labor advocates and industry experts alike. This practice raises questions about fair wages and working conditions for cabin crew members.
The strike served as a platform for flight attendants to voice their concerns and seek changes to this long-standing policy, prompting discussions about the need for reform in airline labor practices.
