What happened
WestJet grounded its fleet overnight after flight attendants, represented by the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE), walked off the job. The primary dispute centers on pay for time on the ground with the door open. All WestJet-operated flights are canceled, except those flown by regional affiliate WestJet Encore. The airline is allowing travelers with flights booked through Aug. 4 to make a one-time flight change or cancellation with no fee. WestJet is a close partner of Delta Air Lines and serves 27 U.S. destinations, with major gateways at LAX, LAS, and ATL
