Future of Airline Industry Hearing Set for January 9
Washington, DC -- Senators John McCain (R-AZ) and Fritz Hollings
(D-SC) today announced the witness list for the full committee hearing on
the Future of the Airline Industry. The hearing is scheduled for Thursday,
January 9, at 9:30 a.m. in room 253 of the Russell Senate Office Building.
Members will examine the structure of the airline industry and actions
being taken by the industry to ensure long-term viability. Members will also
consider the impacts of the current structure of the industry on
competition, and the potential effects of any further downturn in traffic
for the traveling public. In addition, Members may discuss the potential
effects of consolidation and other potential actions affecting the industry
and the consumer.
Following is the tentative witness list (not necessarily in order of
appearance):
Panel I
Mr. Jeffrey N. Shane, Associate Deputy Secretary, Department of
Transportation
Panel II
Mr. Donald J. Carty, CEO American Airlines
Mr. Richard H. Anderson, CEO Northwest Airlines
Mr. David N. Siegel, President & CEO US Airways
Professor Alfred Kahn, Robert Julius Thorne Professor of Political
Economy Emeritus
Mr. Duane Woerth, President, Airline Pilots Association
Mr. Kevin Mitchell, Chairman, Business Travelers Coalition
Now we have three CEO's and One union leader at this meeting! Gee I wonder what McCain and Hollings have on their mind when it comes to our future. MMMMM Let me guess they think I should get paid minimum wage, unlimited flight and duty times with three days off per month. You guys better start contacting your reps and make some major noise. These bozo's won't be happy until they completely ruin our careers.
