Vistara, facing a crisis amid a pilot shortage possibly due to its recent merger, has taken steps to stabilize its operations. The airline's CEO is reported to have scheduled a meeting with the pilots at 1 PM to address their concerns, particularly regarding compensation for salaries for extra working hours post-merger. This move comes as industry experts, including SQN leader Debolina Das (Retd), highlight the challenges of merging different corporate cultures and policies. Despite these efforts, there were indications that Vistara might have to cut flights. However, the latest updates suggest that operations have begun to stabilize, with a noticeable decline in flight cancellations following the CEO's intervention.
