AF PNC unions optimistic about an agreement with AF management

According to Le Monde, current negotiations have brought progress on 3 out of 5 issues of contention. The two remaining issues are:

- on the medium-haul network, bringing down the number of flight attendants from 4 to 3 for 142 passengers (legal minimum is 1 crew member for 50 passengers, as implemented by LCCs)
- on the long-haul network, but only on about 10 aircraft, the removal of one flight attendant

Union leaders seem confident that an agreement can be reached and that the call for a strike can be cancelled.

No visible progress on the call for a strike by SNPL and the one by minority pilot unions, though.
