Teamsters Respond To Comair Downsizing Announcement

Union Represents 750 Comair Employees In The Cincinnati Region

Teamsters Local 513 in Florence, KY, says it plans to closely monitor the downsizing announced by Comair on Wednesday. Airline president John Bendoraitis said the company plans to decrease the number of 50-seat aircraft from its fleet over the next two years in an effort to increase the stability of the company in this competitive industry.

Teamsters Local 513 represents more than 750 workers at Comair. The union says it will monitor this process to ensure their members' have a say in any staffing reductions that may occur as a result of the decrease in Comair's fleet.

"Comair is a good airline whose future can be as promising as its past," said Connie Slayback, President of Local 513, "We will work with the company to continue to represent our members' interests - protecting jobs and maintaining the industry's leading wages and work rules. Together we can ensure that Comair remains a successful and profitable airline."

Teamsters Local 513, along with leaders from the Air Line Pilots Association and the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, are scheduled to meet with Comair on September 8th to discuss upcoming contract negotiations.
