TAIPEI (XINHUA, DPA) – More than 640 flights will be cancelled from Sunday (June 23) to Friday due to an ongoing union strike against Taiwan's Eva Airways, which is expected to affect over 100,000 passengers, the airline said.

The flight attendants' union announced the strike last Thursday after the two sides failed to agree on a per diem allowance.

As of Saturday, more than 200 flights had been cancelled, with over 40,000 passengers affected.

Eva Air, which is one of Taiwan's two major carriers, has pledged to help arrange flight seats for passengers or help them transfer to flights of other airlines.    [FULL  STORY]
