A potential strike looms as contract talks continue between Air Canada and the union representing 10,000 of its flight attendants. Here's what you need to know if you're planning to fly Air Canada.

On Monday, Aug. 11, union members picketed at airports across the country, including Vancouver, Toronto, Calgary, and Montreal, raising awareness about key issues in the contract negotiations, most notably what it characterizes as "rampant abuse of unpaid work in the airline industry."

Air Canada flight attendants plan to picket at four airports on Monday to highlight their pay demands in contract negotiations with Canada's largest airline, but its operations will not be affected, the union said.
