Room sharing policy controversy
The All India Cabin Crew Association (AICCA) has termed Air India's policy of sharing rooms for a section of crew members as illegal and unlawful. ICCA has requested the Labor Ministry to intervene in the matter and urged it to stop this move. The association is demanding hotel accommodation and accommodation conditions which are in line with the accommodation policy for the pilot as per previous agreements and tribunal decisions. The association has also written to Air India chief Campbell Wilson, urging him not to violate the existing status quo and keep in mind the sanctity of the industrial tribunal and the pending industrial dispute on the issue.
