I heard on the news this morning that captains may be striking in the near future over a contract. Anybody know anything about this?

Just another thing to worry about since we're going in 2 weeks.

I hope it does not happen. We leave on May 16th. Looks like I better start checking for news on this.

Where did you hear this or read it? I have been listening & reading & found nothing about a pilot strike? 🙂

Barb...hi!

I heard it on the local news here. Had to be channel 3 in Phila. It was a short clip..but the first thing I said to husband was..oh great, here we go.

I'll see what I can find. Haven't heard anything since then.

Hi Connie
Thanks for the information. I live near Washington DC & so far nothing. Not in the papers, news or anything. We are going to Florida in two weeks & I would hate to be left if you know what I mean. I been looking just in case & there is hardly any flights out there. All stopping for a 2 hrs flight. Husband said he rather rent a car I begining to hate flying anymore. They have changed times twice now since buying them which didn't bother me too much but now they are asking if I will change. Told them no in first place they changed me & now they want me to change back to a smaller plane with hardly any carry on space. When I first made the booking it didn't tell you about the small carry policy until after you paid for it LOL. Happy with it now.
