PAL faces total shutdown

The Philippines' Philippine Airlines' (PAL) cabin staff say they intend to go on strike over pay at the end of October.

The 1,600-member cabin crew union has filed a strike notice with the country's Labour Ministry, which now has 30 days to try to find a compromise
between the two sides to prevent a shut-down.

"Once we go on strike, no flight will take off," said Bob Anduiza, president of the Flight Attendants Association of the Philippines.

"This will ground PAL's entire operations," he said.
