SHANGHAI, China — China Eastern Airlines saw its share price sink 6.8 percent early Friday after the Civil Aviation Administration announced it was fining the company for an incident in which its pilots intentionally disrupted flights, inconveniencing hundreds of passengers.

The Shanghai-based airline earlier said that 21 flights on March 31 in southwestern China's Yunnan province were intentionally disrupted by pilots who either turned back midway through their flights or landed them and then took off again without letting passengers disembark.

It was a rare show of defiance by pilots reportedly disgruntled over contract and work conditions in a country that bans unauthorized labor organizing.
