''Thank you for calling Frontier Airlines.
Due to a work stoppage on another airline,
we are extremely busy at this time."
This recording, out of the Denver Fron
tier reservation office, is a result of a six-day-old
continuing strike by United Air
lines machinists during, what both Frontier
and United Airlines call, their busiest sea
son of the year.
International Association of Machinists
(I AM) members walked out shortly after
midnight Friday. Approximately 16,700
members, including mechanics, food ser
vice workers and ramp service workers, are
involved.
Tickets honored
According to Harlan Franey, Lincoln's
United customer services supervisor,
United tickets that have been sold will be
honored by other airlines, space permitting.
Frontier and Air Wisconsin are the other
two airlines operating out of Lincoln.
If a United ticket is sold, Mark Hime
lick, Lincoln's Air Wisconsin station super
visor said, Air Wisconsin will honor it if
space permits, and United will pay any
additional fare charge. However, he said, if
a person only has a United reservation, but
has not picked up the ticket, he must pay
the additional charge.
. United is cancelling reservations that
have been made for two days ahead and is
accepting reservations for three days ahead,
Franey said. This is based on hopes that
the strike will end soon.
Bob Schulman, Lincoln's Frontier direc
tor of public relations, said many of Fron
tier's popular flights were almost full and
suggested that students wanting reserva
tions call immediately.
Omaha, Denver, Las Vegas
The Omaha, Denver, Las Vegas flight
probably the most popular Frontier
flight, he said, is almost booked full for the
Christmas season,
Lincoln's Air Wisconsin has had about a
100 per cent increase in business, Himelick
said, which he attributes to the strike.
Air Wisconsin mainly flies between
Lincoln and Minneapolis, with connections
to Chicago and other cities United serves
directly, Himelick said
Greyhound and Continental bus sta
tion personnel said stations have been
busy, but could not determine whether it
was because of the United strike. They
added that Christmas is always a busy
season.
