Citation Air Pilots Vote For Teamster Representation
CitationAir Pilots Vote For Teamster Representation
July 6, 2011
More Than 350 Pilots Join Local 1108
(WASHINGTON)—More than 350 CitationAir Pilots voted to join the Teamsters Union today, announced Capt. David Bourne, Director of the Teamsters Airline Division. After the National Mediation Board (NMB) certifies the election, the pilots will become members of Local 1108 and join more than 75,000 airline industry workers currently represented by the Teamsters Airline Division.
“The Teamsters Union looks forward to working with the pilots of CitationAir to preserve and improve their compensation, benefits, work rules and just-cause job protections under a union contract, like those guaranteed at other fractional operators we have organized,” Bourne said. “These rights will be secured by an enforceable contract, rather than promulgated by the company ‘for informational purposes only,’ as in the past.”
CitationAir is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Cessna Aircraft Company. It provides private aviation services through fractional jet ownership or the purchase of prepaid flight hours. Its fleet consists of 84 Cessna Citations that are operated 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Founded in 1903, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters represents more than 1.4 million hard-working men and women in the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico.
