New Delhi: Air India has incurred an approximate loss of Rs 26.5 crore in the past three days due to the pilots` strike which forced it to cancel at least 280 flights.
The airline, which normally operates 320 flights on a daily basis, cancelled 57 flights on April 27, 96 yesterday and at least 126 on Friday, an official said here.
