NAG is the official pilot union of Jet Airways, which had earlier on March 31 decided that, if the Jet management failed to pay the dues to pilots and Aircraft Maintainance Engineer (AME) will take a final decision on April 15.
NAG will meet tomorrow as no collective decision has been taken yet. The Union hasn't yet issued any direction or passed any resolution on whether the pilots will fly from midnight due to non-payment of salaries
NAG sources said that "The pilots are divided on the issue of going on a strike as there are hardly any flights left to operate."
NAG sources also said: "Majority of pilots are planning to stop flying without pay. We are going to meet on Monday morning for final and collective decision."
The Union has not yet issued any direction or passed any resolution on whether the pilots will fly from midnight due to non-payment of salaries.
