# Solidarity says it has reached a sensitive stage in the negotiations with FlySafair at the Commission for Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration. Around 200 pilots represented by the trade union have been on strike since Monday after a breakdown in wage negotiations. The low-cost airline previously tabled a multiyear 5.7-percent wage increase for its pilots, while the union is demanding a 10.5-percent increase and improved working conditions. Solidarity says strike and lockout conditions remain, and parties will reconvene tomorrow to continue discussions.
