TWU Ratifies Long-Term Agreement With Frontier

Dispatchers Agree To Extended Wage, Benefits Concessions

Call it the high cost of keeping their jobs. Dispatchers represented by the Transportation Workers Union of America (TWU) at Frontier Airlines ratified a long-term labor agreement this weekend with the airline.

The agreement was negotiated to extend certain earlier agreed upon wage and benefit concessions through September 2012.

"I am gratified that the TWU membership continues to demonstrate, with this vote, their willingness to work hand in hand with Frontier's management to move our airline to sustainability and future growth," said Frontier President and Chief Executive Officer Sean Menke. "This agreement is very important in helping attract investors by contributing to our cost-reduction efforts."

"The TWU appreciates the joint effort made in reaching this agreement," said TWU Local 540 President David Durkin. "We believe that this agreement shows our commitment to Frontier and our belief in the long-term success of the company."

Frontier declared Chapter 11 bankruptcy in April 2008. The carrier reached a tentative agreement with the union on these concessions last month.
