WestJet says it will pause a move to complete the installation of non-reclining seats on its aircraft following criticism by a union, which says the changes will increase “guest frustration.”

The airline announced the updated cabin design for its aircraft in September, a move that included replacing its traditional economy class reclining seats with fixed-back designs.
