MINNEAPOLIS & ST. PAUL, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 30, 2004
Mesaba Aviation, a subsidiary company of MAIR Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq:MAIR), signed a new five-year contract today with the Air Line Pilots Association, covering the airline's 844 pilots.
The agreement, which was reached after more than 30 months of negotiations, was ratified by Mesaba's pilots in results announced today by ALPA.
"I appreciate the patience of our pilots and the rest of our employees during the negotiation process," said John Spanjers, president and chief operating officer of Mesaba Aviation. "This contract should position us well to compete for growth with our partner Northwest Airlines, and it will also allow us to manage our costs through the continuing uncertainties in the airline industry."
