LATAM Airlines pilots in Chile are set to launch a strike at midnight Wednesday after contract negotiations with the airline collapsed, the pilots’ union said in a statement Tuesday.
The union announced the work stoppage following weeks of failed talks aimed at securing improved working conditions, compensation, and scheduling flexibility. Despite multiple rounds of discussions, both sides were unable to reach an agreement, prompting the union to move forward with industrial action.
The strike could disrupt domestic and international flights across LATAM’s network, potentially affecting thousands of passengers. The company has not yet commented on how it plans to mitigate the impact but previously stated its commitment to maintaining operations and continuing dialogue with union representatives.
