United Airlines pilots getting angrier about Norwegian Air's operating tactics

United Airline pilots are infuriated again in their ever-more-vocal struggle to get president Donald Trump's administration to better regulate Norwegian Air's ever-more-aggressive encroachment into US airspace. The United Airlines pilots union lambasted the US DoT Thursday for tentatively approving Norwegian's newest subsidiary based in London and known as Norwegian Air UK. United pilots called the DoT's move to greenlight a second Norwegian Air subsidiary in the UK "unfathomable" because it would allow a "Norway-based company to tilt the playing field in their favour by operating out of Ireland and the UK with pilots hired in Asia expressly to avoid Norwegian labour protections." United pilots fear that if Norwegian Air's presence in the US continues to grow it could negatively impact US-based carriers. <br/>
