Flight attendants at Mesaba Airlines have won a federal court victory that overturns an earlier decision allowing Mesaba to throw out its union contracts. Mesaba management had threatened to impose a 19.4 percent wage and benefit cut. The Association of Flight Attendants-CWA called the court win a monumental victory for Mesaba workers and employees everywhere. The union says it’s time for Mesaba to drop the litigation and bargain fairly with its flight attendants.
