Greensboro High Point air route dispute docketed
The Greensboro High Point Airport Authority will meet tomorrow at 4 30 p m to discuss Piedmont Airlines dispute over service to the Midwest. Secretary Ceasar Cone says the authority may seek elimination of Piedmont service as it blocks better Great Lakes area service. Piedmont objects to Eastern Air Lines flights from several NC cities to Chicago but may not oppose nonstop Chicago flights. Raleigh Durham Authority also will meet on the topic. Piedmont initially protested Eastern Greensboro High Point Charlotte Winston Salem and Raleigh Durham routes but withdrew against Charlotte to Chicago last week. Charlotte withdrawal sparked Secretary Cone’s push to cut Piedmont service.
