On October 10, Air Wisconsin and the Transport Workers Union (TWU) reached a two-year tentative agreement for the carriers’ Aircraft Dispatchers.

“Although it took mediation to reach an agreement, we believe this deal will meet our members’ needs in the short-term, while providing them with the ability to reengage in negotiations quickly to achieve even greater long-term gains,” said Gary Peterson, TWU International Vice President. “We believe this progressive strategy keeps our members at Air Wisconsin in an optimal position.”
