Midway Airlines seeks Chapter 11 protection in NC
Midway Airlines filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in Raleigh Durham, cutting flights and laying off about 700 workers including 189 pilots. The plan targets 130 daily departures from 230, with losses blamed on a drastic drop in business travel amid high fuel costs and slow growth. Several routes will be dropped and payroll reduced from 2250 to 1000 full time as the carrier seeks partnerships or a sale.
