Court forces Spirit pilots back to work after brawl
A federal court granted Spirit Airlines a temporary restraining order compelling the pilots union to return to work after what the airline calls a pervasive illegal slowdown that halted hundreds of flights and stranded more than 20 000 passengers in the past week. The FAA said about 300 Spirit flights were canceled in seven days amid a dispute with the Air Line Pilots Association International and chaotic incidents at Fort Lauderdale Hollywood International Airport.
