Picketing at the "United Building"

Over 250 Flight Attendants and pilots marched up Michigan Avenue to picket throughout the afternoon at the new United Airlines World Headquarters at 77 W. Wacker Drive in Chicago.  Workers enthusiastically joined the picketline to protest executive greed and make clear that WE are United in our demand for shared rewards. 

During the picket, the HKG crewmembers arriving from today's flight jumped out of their crew van to join the picket line on their way to the layover hotel. Everyone cheered! And, so did all of Chicago. Honks and cheers were heard from passing traffic and pedestrians chimed in to say "way to go! Stop corporate greed. You guys deserve your fair share."
