SUVA, May 25 (Xinhua) -- More than 700 staff members of Fiji Airways, Fiji's national carrier, were terminated on Monday as a result of the implication of COVID-19.
According to Fiji Broadcasting Corporation (FBC) on Monday, around 775 staff members of Fiji Airways which include all cabin crew have been given termination letters by the company following a meeting on Monday.
In the letter, Fiji Airways said the severe effects of COVID-19 have resulted in the company taking this drastic step.
The letter stated that in future all terminated staff will need to reapply when the situation normalizes.
In May, Fiji Airways had extended all its international flight suspensions to the end of June due to the prolonged impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
According to a statement by Fiji Airways earlier this month, the national carrier also expects to reduce its scheduled services in July as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to decimate travel demand. Enditem
