Leaders of Comair’s pilots union will vote tonight on an agreement that would temporarily avert a strike of the regional airline’s 1,600 pilots.
A lawyer for the airline, John Gallagher, reported during a hearing in U.S. Bankruptcy Court this afternoon in New York City that Comair and the union had made progress in negotiations. He asked Judge Adlai Hardin to delay a decision about whether to block pilots from striking.
J.C. Lawson, the chairman of the union, said the measure to be reviewed by the union’s governing committee was not a new contract for the pilots but rather a time extension to negotiate further. He declined to give further details until later today.
