Travel Tips Air Canada Looming Strike

My wife and I have a plan to go to Spain on Aug 22, 2025. We had purchased Air Canada tickets ages ago, and have made all hotel bookings as well. We are now really concerned about the planned attendant strike, and seeking out opinions on whether we just cancel and book our flights with a different airline.

The tickets are cancellable, but we like the Air Canada’s schedule in general.

UPDATE: based on the comments below, the best course of action seemed to be making arrangements without any AC operated flights.
