Latest News About Air Transat

Here’s a quick update on Air Transat’s latest news.

• Air Transat indicated it would begin canceling flights and winding down operations after a pilots’ union issued a 72-hour strike notice, with potential cancellations around December 8–9, 2025, ahead of the strike window. This marked a continuation of labor tensions affecting Canadian carriers during that period.[2]
• Coverage from CBC News echoed that stance, noting Air Transat was canceling flights and winding down as negotiations with the pilots’ union stalled, with the strike expected to start mid-December 2025. The report also highlighted the airline’s contention that the strike was premature and that talks had not yielded a compromise.[2]
• Historical context: Transat’s corporate pages and archival coverage show the company has undergone various governance and strategic changes over the years, including past discussions with other airlines and ownership shifts, though those items are older and not tied to the 2025 labor action.[4][8]
