April 29, 2009
The Teamsters Negotiating Committee and officials from United Airlines formally launched contract negotiations yesterday, April 28th, 2009 in Chicago.
This first session was largely introductory, with both parties providing opening comments and outlining general themes and objectives. The Union will present its official non‐economic proposals to the Company when the parties meet again on May 26th and 27th in San Francisco.
After the IBT presents the non‐economic proposals to the Company at the May meetings, those proposals will be posted on Negotiations Update.
