Air Transat, one of Canada's largest airlines, said it will start gradually suspending some flights starting on Monday ahead of a planned strike.

The union representing the airline's pilots issued a 72-hour strike notice on Sunday, announcing that Air Transat pilots will stop showing up to work on Wednesday if a contract agreement is not reached.
