Sunwing Update

Good day,
 

The Company just met with all labor groups, advising that they expect the government will announce shortly today that the next step for regulatory approval of acquisition will be granted. There are still other steps that must be completed before the acquisition is final. It is anticipated that all steps will be completed in the next few weeks.  
 

The acquisition is for ‘hardware and software’. Meaning that it is for Sunwing Airlines, SelloffVacations, Sunwing Vacation, Vacation Express, all related equipment and the Employees. 
 

CUPE has no further information on this, as this transaction is still not completed. However, the Employer has committed to meet with us and keep us up to date as matters progress. 
 

When asked, the Company did not commit to any further details on the merger acquisition, as it is not finalized yet. 

The Union is committed to providing updates as they become available.
