Kingfisher Airlines has assured its employees that May salaries will be paid by Thursday, an airline staff member said.
This is even as a section of the airline’s employees said they would decide on their future course of action after Saturday, in case May salaries were not credited by then.
Some employees claimed that a technical glitch in a private sector bank was the reason behind the cash-strapped airline being unable to keep its promise of paying May salaries before Diwali.
Airline officials were unavailable for comments on when the over 4,000 employees of the airline would be paid their May salaries.
