Dana Air pilots have gone on strike in protest of the non-payment of their salaries, grounding the airline’s operations and leaving hundreds of passengers stranded nationwide.
“The strike started this morning and passengers that were supposed to travel this morning are stranded,” a source at the airport said.
According to the source, the airline had continued to sell tickets to passengers earlier today in the hope that the dispute would be resolved.
It was gathered that the airline has, however, started making refunds with some passengers booking flights with other airlines.
