Air Canada passengers hope to fly Wednesday after strike ends

Air Canada is working towards normal service after the flight attendant strike ended Tuesday.

Many flights continue to be cancelled leaving some passengers stranded but much less than was happening during the strike.

The airline is offering refund assistance for customers impacted by the labour dispute.

Though the terms only allow for certain customers to qualify. The flight had to be booked directly with Air Canada and not through a travel agency, agent or another airline.

Refunds are expected to be provided to customers who fill out the form and who completed part of their journey with Air Canada or if they need reimbursement for another form of transportation.

The airline says it could take up to 10 days for service to be fully back to normal.

Flights on Tuesday focused out-of-country while Wednesday is expected to be more focused on flights within Canada.

Wednesday is the first full day of service since the strike began.

Roughly 500,000 passengers had their flights cancelled during the three-day strike.

Air Canada has designated 5,000 agents to assist customers with the re-booking process. Wait times for the contact centre were around 2.5 hours on Tuesday.

A tentative agreement was announced by the union that represents the workers and the flight attendants are expected to vote on the agreement Wednesday.
