Atlas Air and sister carrier Polar Air have reached an agreement with their flight dispatchers, whose contracts were due to end in November. The members of Teamsters Local 210 came to a “tentative” agreement for a four-year contract extension and provisions for moving flight dispatch operations from Purchase to Cincinnati. The agreement includes a 30% wage increase over the term of the contract. The union said it was “very happy”. Time for the pilots now?
