Several Alaska Airlines flights canceled in Portland

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) -- Those flying with Alaska Airlines in and out of Portland International Airport on Friday may get stuck at the airport.

There are ten flights canceled out of PDX, while another 11 flights headed to the Rose City are canceled. All of those are Alaska Airlines flights.

Alaska Airlines pilots are reportedly picketing across the country on Friday over contract negotiations. It's not known if the cancellations are a direct result of the protest.

Those employees will be picketing at the Sheraton Portland Airport Hotel later in the day.
