ATE Halts Feb. 9 Airport Strike After Government Calls Talks

Flights are set to run on schedule as the union heads to a Labor Secretariat meeting with ANAC to address pay disputes.

Overview

  • ATE suspended the 24-hour stoppage planned for Monday after Transport authorities convened an urgent negotiation at the Labor Secretariat.
  • The pause is conditional, with the union warning it may reconvene assemblies and resume actions if there are no concrete results.
  • Rodolfo Aguiar confirmed the suspension on X, saying the meeting will also include officials from Gestión y Empleo Público.
  • ATE alleges the government reversed an agreed salary increase, re-liquidated wages tied to a “racionamiento” allowance, and delayed payments.
  • An earlier protest slated for Feb. 2 was postponed for legal reasons, and airlines had begun contingency planning for widespread disruptions.
