Air Zimbabwe pilots on Tuesday went on strike to protest against the non payment of their allowances.
The pilots downed tools on Tuesday morning and assembled at a car park at the national airline's headquarters at Harare International Airport.
The pilots have resorted to the industrial action to demand payment of their outstanding allowances, which haven't been paid since last year despite promises by management which undertook to clear the outstanding payments.
The strike action resulted in the cancellation of an Air Zimbabwe flight to Johannesburg on Tuesday morning.
