Kingfisher Airlines statement on partial lockout

Mumbai, October 4, 2012—On October 1, 2012, Kingfisher Airlines Ltd. was forced to declare a partial lockout in view of the illegal strike perpetrated and continued by a faction of technicians, AME’s and Pilots.

We regret that the illegal strike has still not been withdrawn and normalcy has not been restored in the Company, thereby continuing to cripple and paralyse the working of the entire Airline.

In light of this, Kingfisher Airlines Ltd. has been constrained to extend the partial lock-out which commenced from Monday evening (1st of October, 2012) up to Friday the 12th of October, 2012 or up to such earlier date on which the said illegal strike is called off, and the management is informed about the same.
