US Airways employees won't get bonus

US Airways employees won't get $100 in bonus money after falling short on two performance goals over the holidays.
The airline's "Holiday Hustle" program would have rewarded employees for meeting two goals between Nov. 1 and Dec. 31: at least 60 percent of all flights departing at the scheduled time or earlier, and mishandling no more than seven bags per 1,000 bags. Employees would have gotten $50 for reaching just one goal.
Final statistics weren't available Wednesday, but US Airways spokesman Phil Gee said the airline missed both goals. Through Dec. 26, 58.5 percent of flights departed at the scheduled time, and US Airways had mishandled 7.43 bags per 1,000 bags.
Gee said via e-mail that the airline was on track to meet both goals until mid-December, when bad weather and packed planes led to more delays and baggage issues.
"The operation still went pretty well," Gee said, "but not well enough to get the prize."
The Arizona-based US Airways has about 36,000 employees, including about 5,300 based in Charlotte, its largest hub.
