WestJet pilots are already picketing airports on their days off, but they’re poised to walk off the job on May 16 – just in time to complicate travel plans for the long weekend.

WestJet is owned by deep-pocketed equity firm Onyx. The company says their pilots are fairly well compensated among their Canadian peers.
