The EL AL Engineers Union is launching a work slowdown demanding that they get a collective agreement that is separate from other airline workers. The article can be found here: http://www.haaretz.com/business/1.540563

For an airline that has less than 40 a/c, EL AL seems to be having a lot of tech issues with it's a/c. Perhaps disgruntled engineers may be one of the reasons for this? I sure hope that is not the case, but if it is, given how the company has been performing lately, it wouldn't surprise me.
