Delta pilots picket at Sea-Tac Airport, several other US cities on Thursday

Off-duty pilots with Delta Air Lines plan to picket at airports -- including in Seattle -- Thursday morning.

In a media advisory, the union group Air Line Pilot Association, International said the pilots would be protesting protracted contract negotiations as they want to send a message to the airline's management team that "it's time for an industry-leading contract."

The news comes as customers have been dealing with flight woes, impacting their travel plans in recent weeks.

The Atlanta-based airline announced last month it would be cutting about 100 flights daily around its network starting in July and extending through the beginning of August. The pilots planning to picket also comes just before the busy Fourth of July weekend.

They have let go too many pilots and now the ones left are being treated horribly. Unions should be screaming.
