BREAKING American Airlines pilots have voted overwhelmingly in favor of a strike authorization.
The Allied Pilots Association, which serves as the collective bargaining agent for 15,000 American Airlines pilots, announced Monday that its membership has voted overwhelmingly in favor of authorizing a strike.
"The summer travel season is almost here, and we're all wondering whether this will be another summer of uncertainty for American Airlines," said Capt. Ed Sicher, APA president. "Fortunately, there is an alternative. By embracing the win-win scheduling and work rule improvements APA has presented at the bargaining table, management can take steps to improve the airline's operational reliability and efficiency.
APA members are scheduled to conduct "informational picketing" on Monday at the Philadelphia International Airport, according to a news release.
