I posted this topic here and it was moved. I assume it was due to the NW name. I emailed the moderator to ask whay it was moved and have not recieved an answer. This post is getting a lot of feedback from all airlines. If it happens at NW it WILL happen here. Check out the post on NW. Can anyone tell me if this was moved other than the moderator deeming it was the wrong airline. Thanks
"The Wall Street Journal-Oct 26, 05 front page..."F/A's might lose as Northwest works to save $195 million a year...Ailing Carrier seeks savings by pushing veteran staffers (F/A's) off prized overseas routes" Nov 16 they will ask the BK judge to cancel all current contracts. They are also trying to outsource pilots and ground workers.
"The situation at NW is potentially devastating to all f/a's across the country."..."One thing we have learned during this financial crisis in our industry is that proposals like this spread from carrier to carrier like the most virulent disease mankind has ever experienced"-Pat Friend Intl pres AFA
This is not a pretty picture. Granted its management putting presure on unions to accept concessions. But outsourcing is becoming a major trend in other areas of our industry. Is this possible in companies outside of BK?"
