Malta Air said that the agreement would have included "modest pay cuts (to be restored over four years)", along with a minimum pay guarantee, and a three-year review. The airline is currently operating at just 10% of its capacity due to COVID-19. However, it said it was still employing 100% of its pre-COVID cabin crew, which was an "untenable situation" in an industry which had been destroyed by COVID-19. "Sadly, without this emergency agree- ment which was already agreed by Malta Air pilots, cabin crew job losses can no longer be avoided. As a direct result of the GWU's failure to deliver upon its agree- ment with Malta Air, there will be 40 cab- in crew redundancies implemented and these job losses will take effect on 1 Jan- uary next," a Malta Air spokesperson said. In May of this year, MaltaToday had been told by sources that around 20 pilots and 40 cabin crew would be made redun- dant from the full complement of 179 pi- lots and cabin crew. Ryanair subsidiary Malta Air cuts 40 cabin crew jobs, talks with union fail Ryanair says that without 10% pay cut, Malta Air will not be able to retain pre-COVID cabin crew
