Varig.s pilots are trying to stop the transfer of its flights to the low-cost regionals RioSul and Nordeste. In consequence of such transfers, many pilots are now on unpaid leaves, and Varig's fleet has been greatly reduced.
Apvar was working on a new agreement with Varig, but management abandoned the negotiating table.
A "Non Colaboration" movement was initiated, causing several delays. In response, Apvar's president, vice presidents and board of directors were laid off, among many other pilots
I think major disruptions are to follow very soon
