The Nation : Talks Set in TWA Strike

Share

Striking flight attendants and Trans World Airlines will resume contract talks Wednesday morning in New York with the aid of a federal mediator in an attempt to resolve their dispute, the National Mediation Board announced in Washington. About 6,000 flight attendants went on strike against TWA on March 7 in a contract dispute, forcing the nation’s fifth-largest airline to cancel many flights temporarily. The union said it has offered TWA a 15% wage cut and other concessions, which management calls not enough.
