Default NWA Flight Attendants NOT ALLOWED to strike

Flight attendants at Northwest Airlines may not strike



"MINNEAPOLIS A federal appeals court has upheld a ruling that bars flight attendants at bankrupt Northwest Airlines from striking.

The flight attendants had sought the right to strike after Northwest imposed pay cuts and other work rule changes as it reorganized.

Other Northwest unions made pay-cut deals, but flight attendants rejected a negotiated agreement. A bankruptcy judge gave the Minneapolis carrier permission to impose concessions.

Northwest is Michigan's biggest passenger air carrier and has a hub at Detroit Metro airport. "

Not good for pilots who want to strike in the future

The bankruptcy courts have not been good to labor groups since the Bush Administration took office. Some coincidence, eh?
