United Airlines parent UAL on Wednesday said it would lay off almost 1,200 workers as part of a previously announced plan to trim staff by 7,000 jobs.

The layoffs are planned for early next year, a UAL spokeswoman said. Similar notices would continue into 2009, she said.

The company had 55,000 workers when the cuts were first announced.

The airline industry, battered severely this year first by high fuel costs and later by sagging travel demand, has been rapidly downsizing to regain stability.

con il petrolio a 50$ i voli dovrebbero essere raddoppiati..visto che li hanno dimezzati quando era a 150$
Invece continuanao tutti ad attaccarsi ad un periodo, difficile, ma alla fine piuttosto circoscritto nel tempo e - sono sempre curioso - bisognerebbe poi vederer se ha veramente colpito le comnopagnie, visto che fanno contratti a lungo proprio per mitigare o ridurre o evitare gli effetti negativi delle variazioni del costo del petrolio.
Cosa li fanno a fare, allora?
