Some 10,000 U.S. hotel workers began a multi-day strike in several cities on Sunday after contract talks with hotel operators

The strike is taking place with the industry facing a 9% increase in Labor Day weekend domestic travel compared to last year, according to AAA booking data. "Since COVID, they're expecting us to give five-star service with three-star staff," the union said, quoting a staff member at Marriott's Palace Hotel in San Francisco.
