LAS VEGAS, NV - US Airways is closing its Las Vegas hub and many of the pilots who fly for the airline spent some time expressing their thoughts on the ground Wednesday. Some US Airways pilots hit the picket line at McCarran International.
"So what we're hoping for is to alert local citizens, local business communities and local politicians that this is important and we'd like their support and help in writing to US Airways and having them reconsider," said James Ray.
Pilots say the shut down will further limit flight options in and out of Las Vegas. It will also leave around 300 local workers without jobs.
