\nAtlas Air Worldwide Holdings (AAWW) reached the tentative agreement today with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters (IBT) Local 210, which represents the dispatchers of the subsidiary carriers owned by AAWW.
\nThe company\u2019s dispatchers are responsible for planning, dispatching and oversight of all Atlas and Polar aircraft during flight.
\nA World Atlas Boeing 747 aircraft takes off from Kabul international Airport, Kabul, Afghanistan, Dec. 13, 2010.
\nDetails of the proposed agreement will be made available to dispatch employees it covers by IBT Local 210. \u201cWe are pleased to have reached this tentative agreement that offers highly competitive pay increases as well as favorable moving allowances for our valued dispatchers. It also extends a solid contract that continues to serve us all very well,\u201d said John Dietrich, executive vice president and COO of Atlas Air Worldwide.
\nMeanwhile, negotiations between Atlas\u2019 pilots union, the Airline Professionals Association Teamsters, Local 1224, have yet to produce mutually agreeable terms. The union has stressed that there are too few pilots to meet the long-term demands for Atlas\u2019 major clients, including DHL and Amazon, and warned that many pilots may begin seeking work elsewhere.
