Default Update.

Looks like they are going to have another go at it.

Breaking traveler news-

Compania Mexicana de Aviación SA is considering plans to shed half its workforce as it seeks to return to the skies in December.

Mexicana ceased operations in August and filed for bankruptcy protection in Mexico and the United States.

However, as part of its recovery plan, the Mexico City-based carrier is considering the elimination of 3,900 jobs and over half of its aircraft.

The new leaner airline would fly to just 30 aircraft on 23 routes, six of them domestic and 17 international, mostly to the US and Canada.

Addressing a labour conference in Mexico labour secretary Javier Lozano acknowledged that, while the task would not be easy, “there is a willingness among business leaders and the unions of pilots, flight attendants and ground employees’ to resume operations”.

Plans involve signing a new collective bargaining agreement that will be overseen by the government to ensure that work conditions and job cuts comply with the law.

Subsidiaries MexicanaLink and MexicanaClick would be eliminated.
