United to choose Comair ground handling over SKW?

I suggest using Mozilla Firefox for it's spell checking capability, though is this case it wouldn't have made a difference because you still have to have a basic understanding of grammar.[/quote]


D'oh!

Maybe if they'd have had a union they would have some protection against this. A union isn't going to keep a base open, but it will assure you don't lose more in the process.

Hasn't stopped United from closing many UA/IAM handled stations.

For the third time... a union cannot determine what bases open or close, however they can negotiate protections to make a base closure easier on the employee.

However, the new union contact HAS forced several stations to once again be operated by UAL mainline. Been to FSD recently? There are several others that I can't think of right now. I think it totals about a dozen stations. The new CSR contract for the United folks dictates something along the line of if a Mainline plane serves the airport, the service will be done by mainline CSR's.
