Holiday travel plans up in the air at Southwest

Published

on

Southwest Airlines flight attendants have voted down a contract offer reached by negotiators for the airline and the union.

 
The Transport Workers Union Local 556 said Friday that the proposal was voted down 64% to 36%.

A tight labor market in the United States has driven up wages. The shortages are far more acute for pilots amid robust travel demand, enabling unions to secure big gains in new contracts.

While Southwest has yet to reach a contract deal with its pilots, the company is widely expected to match the hefty pay raises at rival carriers.

The company also expects higher aircraft maintenance expense next year. In the meantime, its bid to protect margins by slowing down capacity growth is projected to worsen the cost pressure.

Soaring costs led to a 30% fall in Southwest’s third-quarter profit. #featured #aviation #southwest

Published

Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.

U.S. home prices surge 47%

American home prices are rising at faster pace now than in the last 20-years.

A recent analysis reveals a jaw dropping surge in the cost of American homes.

Since the start of 2020, U.S. home prices have surged 47% easily outstripping the gains seen in recent decades.

On top of that, home price growth so far this decade is on the verge of surpassing all the growth seen in the 2000s.

Many experts believe this decade’s housing market frenzy was ignited by a perfect storm — the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic triggering an unprecedented rush among buyers.

Tom Hutchens, the Executive Vice President of Production at Angel Oak Mortgage Solutions joins Veronica Dudo to discuss.
