Horizon Pilots Sue Over Fatigue Rest Changes (avweb.com)

Teamsters Local 1224 filed a federal lawsuit against Horizon Air in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington, alleging violations of collective bargaining agreements and federal labor law. The complaint challenges new procedures requiring fatigued pilots to travel as passengers to another location before resting, rather than remaining at their home base. This legal action coincides with ongoing contract negotiations spanning four years and recent informational pickets in Seattle and Boise.
