How People Power Fuels a High‐Frying Carrier

Abstract

The year 1989 was characterized by a number of major events that have deeply wounded the airline industry. The scars include the Eastern Air Lines strike, the takeover at Northwest Airlines, and the battle for control at United Airlines. It is predicted that 1990 will prove to be just as treacherous. Those air carriers that can remain prosperous and intact are definitely doing something right. At America West Airlines, that something is the partnership that exists between management and the employee‐owners.
