Since the strike began Thursday, the airline has been forced to delay or cancel many scheduled flights. Top management at the airline has held a press conference to apologize for the inconvenience to customers.

EVA Air President Clay Sun took an apologetic tone after the announcement that a flight attendants’ strike would disrupt flights. At a press conference, Sun stood alongside other senior figures in the company and gave a bow.

The deputy senior vice president at the company’s operations management department said that only 14 of 36 flights scheduled for the first day of the strike would operate. All of Taiwan’s major airports will be affected.

Travel agents are scrambling to do what they can for stranded customers. Travel Agent Lin Cheng-ye says his company is trying its best to bring travelers home or arrange accommodation.
