Finnair pilots reject proposals; strike begins on Monday

The Finnish Air Line Pilots’ Association (SLL) representing Finnair pilots has
rejected settlement proposals put forward by State appointed mediator Esa Lonka
on Friday night.

“We are totally stunned and apologise sincerely for the inconvenience this
causes to our customers. The SLL has now turned down three settlement proposals
within in a year and a half,” says Anssi Komulainen, Finnair SVP, Human
Resources. “The employer would have been prepared to accept all of these
proposals. The strike that will now begin on Monday will cancel out all those
savings achieved with great hardship by other employee groups.”

“Now we are forced to come up with totally new solutions in order to secure the
future of the company,” says Komulainen.
