LAS RAMP LAYOFFS

[Airline Employee]

Has anyone heard how many part time & full time ramp agents have taken voluntary furloughs or retired?

Not sure, but I do know the cuts went back to '04 for the part time people...

the number was in the range of 35 FT and 350 PT. Apparently 35 FT took voluntary furloughs so no layoffs in FT but who knows in the PT region. It will be interesting since many of them worked swings or nights because they had FT jobs during the day. Now that the operation moves to days how many will be able to stay.

There was only supposed to be 15 FT furloughs, so I'd hope that the extra FT will save some PT jobs. As to what's gonna happen with the schedules, according to BB (Nite Flight PTer of about 11 years) the PT shifts are still going to be in the evening, just a bit earlier. Think 1800 instead of 2100 or 2200. Dunno how much I believe that, but he based staying on that.

Anything else on this topic should be discussed in the Fleet Service topic. Thank you.
