Air France-KLM's pilots have prevailed. A strike that crippled air traffic to, from and within France and the Netherlands for the better part of two weeks-and led to staggering financial losses-has forced the airline to back down on an ambitious plan to regain competitiveness by expanding its low-cost subsidiary, Transavia (see page 23). That has set the stage for the pilots to return to work on Sept. 30, though even that is far from certain, given that the strike already has been extended twice. The retreat is a catastrophe for Air France-KLM Chairman/CEO Alexandre de Juniac and could ultimately prove to be the same for the storied carrier.
