SEOUL: Asiana Airlines Inc, South Korea’s second-largest carrier by sales, says it has reached a tentative wage deal with its pilots’ union for the 2019 to 2022 period.

The tentative agreement came after two international and 10 domestic flights were cancelled as around 100 Asiana pilots began a work-to-rule protest on June 7 for higher wages.
