Controllers Union Leader Defers on Cost of Demands
Robert E. Poli of the Professional Air Traffic Controllers Organization declined to state the government cost if demands are granted while Lewis cites a 490 million dollar estimate. A controller strike could ground half the nation's air traffic, disrupting short flights and costing tens of millions daily. Travelers rush to book before any strike as car rental firms and Amtrak anticipate a surge. Poli awaits a government counterproposal and doubts a strike will be avoided. The FAA has prepared contingency plans, starting with reduced flights at major airports.
